Your calculation looks correct, the conclusion is slightly wrong however. The Application buffers will consume 36Gb of memory, the rest of the application, any comms buffers and the usual OS overhead will be on top of this so putting only 36Gb of ram in your nodes will still leave you short. Ashley,
