> Can Julia actually support large dataset. My machine has RAM size of 15GB and most of the time when I go for parallel processing with large dataset around 1GB only, it shows out of memory error… If Julia supports, how much can it intake? Is it because RAM size is insufficient or can someone say How can I specify the memory required for Julia. Where am I getting stuck. Thanx in advance.
