John,
I know you're a big fan of follow-up, so here's my follow-up on this.
After some exchanges of e-mails and some research, the Synopsys AE finally
came up with the "magic" to get a dc_shell job to use more than 2 Gigs of
memory. For a C-shell environment you have to set the following limits:
limit memorysize 14000M
limit datasize 14000M
limit stacksize 512M
Leaving then set to 'unlimited' doesn't work. The actual value you set is
obviously swap space dependent. This worked on Solaris 2.6/2.7 Suns.
