4000 x 800 x 800 = 2.5 G. In Java, you cant create an array larger than
2^31 = 2.1 elements. So break up your call into smaller pieces. For
performance, you should minimize the amount of memory you are using, eg
make your code loop over the outer dimension and only work with one 800 *
800 array at a time. Will likely go much faster.
btw, you should ask netcdf-java questions at netcdf-java@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
