hello,

We have observed a strange problem using the MSPICE.020
server from MENTOR GRAPHICS software.

We run AEGIS and BSD4.3 10.1 version. 
Mentor 7.0 version.
MSPICE V7.0_1.11  version. 

The following appends :
When the server starts, it takes about 20 Mb on the disk !!! 

I precise that previously we ran 9.7/6.1  and it was working 
perfectly ( with 4 diskless for a disk ).

Is there a workaround to reduce the size of the virtual 
memory that SPICE.020 allows ? 

Is it a BUG or a FEATURE ? 
Does anybody has encountered or heard about that problem ?

Mentor Graphics France was not able to answer a word about it !!!

Our biggest problem is that we are very short in disk space,
as you can understand and we are short in money too...

Thanx.
