title: Matlab: use of memory
body: <p>I have several "out of memory" problems using MATLAB. I don't understand exactly if Matlab can use (or not) all the ram memory of my computer. This is the problem: my computer has 4gb of ram memory and 2 gb for Swap memory (my OS is Linux/Ubuntu 12.10), but Matlab only uses up to 2.6 gb and then shows the warning: "out of memory".</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to fix this and allow Matlab to use all the "available" memory?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
