Never mind. I was confused. The compiler I have has big pointers and I can allocate more than 4GB of memory. Now all I have to do is figure out why I cannot allocate more than 20 GB of space.
I'm running Linux Mint on a 64-bit Intel machine with 16 GB of memory.
{SOLVED] What C compiler do I need to compile a program that can access more that 4GB of memory?

What error do you get when allocating memory beyond 4gb using gcc?
