hello,
I download this code from worx site with some of my
modification appear below. i want to ask why this program fails to run
after megs_obtained with 660 value?
Also as it concern with avail memory allocation, how more that
256MB memory be given to this program?
I am using Fedora Core 1 with 256 physical RAM and 80GB HDD.
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#define ONE_K (1024)
int main() {
char *some_memory;
int size_to_allocate = ONE_K;
int megs_obtained = 0;
int ks_obtained = 0;
while (megs_obtained<724) {
for (ks_obtained = 0; ks_obtained < 1024; ks_obtained++) {
some_memory = (char *)malloc(size_to_allocate);
if (some_memory == NULL) exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
sprintf(some_memory, "Hello World");
}
megs_obtained++;
printf("Now allocated %d Megabytes\n", megs_obtained);
}
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
