[BioC] how to solve the memory problem

[wang peter]

i have already got the answer from my friends

when you load big data into memory, u often meet the memory problem.
but in fact, you have enough physical memeory to load the data.
that is because the linux use much of your free memory to cache the files
becaues u do calculation
you should run such command to set them free

memory problem

echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
