[MITgcm-support] How to calculate the RAM requirement?

Dear Christopher L. Wolfe,

My OS is SGI IRIX64 6.5 ,64bit, and I'm runing MPI mode.

OC 3% limit
cputime         unlimited
filesize        unlimited
datasize        unlimited
stacksize       unlimited
coredumpsize    unlimited
memoryuse       8285840 kbytes
descriptors     200
vmemoryuse      unlimited
threads         1024

Now grid 100x580x24 succeed, grid 100x600x24 was failed ,
So I think 100x580x24 is the highest resolution. 
Maybe the resolution 1440x720x24 need more than 8GB RAM.
Does insufficient memory caused this problem?
Who knows  the RAM requirement of the resolution 1440x720x24?
