Hi Lukas,

Thank you for the information.
Then sum of heaps of all processes are less than 100M words.
That is less than 400M bytes(I'm using R11B-5 32bit beam).

I'm afraid there is a still big gap between this and processes_used 1.6G in
erl_crash.dump.


Maybe I'm misunderstanding something:).

Thanks a lot,
Kinoshita
