The result is that your execution of grads may be using up a lot of memory if your plots require a very large metabuffer (if you are drawing a lot of stuff). Also, if you’re drawing many, many characers with fonts … there’s another bug there that eats up memory. I’ve got a new release almost ready. Try drawing fewer time steps, then quitting grads and picking up where you left off. <div>—Jennifer</div><div><br><div><br><div><div>On Mar 5, 2015, at 11:14 AM, M.Mahakur <<a href="mailto:mmahakur@tropmet.res.in">mmahakur@tropmet.res.in</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">Hi,<br><br>I am still looking for a answer on the following errors, posted yesterday.
