Is your "userspace" 32-bit or 64-bit? A 32-bit userspace program will run out of addressable memory at 3G. So that's unlikely to exhaust your swap. (in fact it's unlikely to start filling your swap). But just to be sure....
To allow developers to work with your images, are you willing to upload them somewhere? You can reduce the source images in resolution to say 1/2 of 1/4th of their original resolution, and save them as low-quality JPGs. Then even 330 images will end up at a resonable size if you pack them with the hugin project file in a zip. To reduce the images in size: mkdir small for i in *.jpg ; do djpeg $i | pnmscale 0.25 | cjpeg -quality 70 > small/$i done I reduced a set of pictures a factor of 64 this way. your set of 330 images should reduce from 1-2 Gb to 15-30Mb. Easily transferable via mytransfer or something like that (you know how to use pastebin). I can put it up on a webserver somewhere if you want/allow me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Hugin Developers, which is subscribed to Enblend. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/685105 Title: enblend fails to blend large pano Status in Enblend: Confirmed Bug description: Enblend failed with: enblend --compression=LZW -m 1200 -w -f135659x3947+0+1091 -o pano8110_l.tif .... ... enblend: info: loading next image: pano8110_l0000.tif 1/1 enblend: out of memory enblend: std::bad_alloc This is a simple 0.5Gpixel panorama I shot. And agreed, Hugin did warn me that it might take a lot of memory. The thing is: There is no other tool to stitch this with, so I'll have to make do with hugin and its toolset.... I thought there was an "imagecache" that would swap parts of images to disk...
