Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.

The System Requirement page still says ``It is recommended
that the system have a <b>minimum</b> of 512 MB of RAM free

machine with 256MB of RAM in total ?

I know Tom answered you on this, but just wanted to
reiterate that it depends on the size of your dataset.
At AGU, I was looking at cross sections of 3 different
parameters and an isosurface of temperature from a
3D ocean dataset of 90x30x15 points (one time) and
the IDV memory registered about 40Mb used.
