How much data can GeneSpring load at once?
A. GeneSpring has a memory overhead of about 50 bytes per gene per sample. There is also additional memory required for the program, for miscellaneous data, etc. For example, on a PC with 256MB RAM GeneSpring can load over 500 samples, each measuring ten thousand genes, at the same time. On a more powerful computer, GeneSpring will load an even greater number of samples simultaneously.
