Here it is the configuration set: - 8GB RAM - Windows server 2008 64bit - HD West Digital Black 7200 RPM / 64MB Buffer / 2TB - Attansic L1 Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000 Base-T Adapter I just can captures files of 200MB ~ 300MB large. More than this, I got out of memory crash. And when I process with Wireshark 32bit version (1.2.9), I can run with no problem untill the Windows task manager point 3GB physical use of. If I run the wireshark 64bit version (1.2.10), I got only 2GB...It's interesting that the 64-bit version can only use 2 Gb of RAM. According to what's on http://wiki.wireshark.org/KnownBugs/OutOfMemory the 64-bit version should be able to use a lot more... (I don't know enough about Windows to understand why that might be the case.)
You might want to try out 1.4.RC2 it uses considerable less memory and opens files a lot faster. /Anders
