Anne's recommendation to try making the queue with pqcreate instead of
ldmadmin using an argument such as "4G" or "4000M" to specify a 4
Gbyte queue is a good one. If you are specifying the queue size
using something like "4000000000" instead, it's possible that the
version of perl used to interpret the ldmadmin script can't deal with
integers that big and is truncating them. You might also try just
using "4G" with ldmadmin instead of "4000000000", since it should just
pass this string on to pqcreate.
We'd be interested in the results.
