Maximum Variable Size in Octave

[Przemek Klosowski]

	I am planning memory-intensive calculations in Octave and/or Matlab.
   The Mathwork has published the following document describing the
   maximum variable size in Matlab on various platforms:
   http://www.mathworks.com/support/tech-notes/1100/1110.html
	Is there an equivalent document for Octave?

For what it is worth, I compiled octave on a 64-bit itanium system with 32 GB
of memory and allocated over 10 GB arrays.
