Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] OutOfMemory

Gentlemen,

 

I was trying to open a 200MB .pcap file into Wireshark(1.2.2) under

Ubuntu(see System Monitor.png) and I got the OutOfMemory message.

According to the System Monitor, I was not out of memory(see

OutOfMemory.png).  I have read the Wiki page and it said that it would use

all available memory/swap space.

 

Is there some setting that I need to set to force it to use all memory

and/or swap space?

 

Any other reason that it is not using all the memory?

 

Thanks,

Roger Wynns
