I constantly met with "out-of-memory" error. This is really a headache. The
Matlab's symbolic toolbox calling Maple seems has a very large memory demand
and it does not clear using "clear all"...
But anyway, I know Matlab always has the 2GB memory limitation.
My question is: Suppose I am going to buy a Intel Dual Core dore, or even
Quad core, I heard thay are 64 bit system.
And if I buy 8GB or more memory. And use a Matlab 2006b or 2007a.
Matlab will never complain "out-of-memory", and I will get rid of this
headache out of my life, am I right?

Basically. Until you start wanting to process 4GB datasets...
Be sure you get a 64-bit OS and 64-bit MATLAB or it won't help...

No I didn't need 4GB dataset. It is not data per se that consumes memory.
The Matlab symbolic box which calls Maple also consumes tremendous memory. I
am doing some mid-size and time-consuming symbolic computation, as follows:
(Note I've changed manually the loop into the following form in order to do
clear all)

I have the same problem. If you check the reserved memory
with Task Manager you can see that Matlab reserves a lot of
memory after the "clear all". More that the 100Mb basic.
I think the symbolic engine leaks the memory what I use
extensively.

Same problem here. In my case, it's not a matter of data
size. Once I started calling symbolic maths, my simulation
started crashing because of memory. Neither "clear maplemex;
maple clear; maple restart;" free the used memory. It
consumes all the memory (virtual) until it stops. Not even
"clear all" doesn't work. There must be something wrong here.
Already 2 weeks of simulation time lost trying to
identifying the problem.
