Hi,

I have the following problem when trying to execute 
cCreateSequenceDictionary.jar on an ubuntu linux server:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Requested array size 
exceeds VM limit

The genome is rather big (around 12G). I have tried controlling memory usage 
with:

java -jar -Xmx <value> …cmd

with <value>(s) 4G, 12G, 14G, 30G, 100G, 400G, 500G

The error stays the same (system call attached, as well as error message)

I have also tried setting MAX_RECORDS_IN_RAM to 5,000,000 or 20,000,000
