Dear all,


Please, I need your help. 

I've been using the wireshark to capture
some data from a 3G network. I've been face some problems regarding to
RAM memory. 
Here it is the configuration set: 

- 8GB RAM 
- Windows
server 2008 64bit 
- HD West Digital Black 7200 RPM / 64MB Buffer / 2TB

- Attansic L1 Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000 Base-T Adapter 

I just can
captures files of 200MB ~ 300MB large. More than this, I got out of
memory crash. 

And when I process with Wireshark 32bit version (1.2.9),
I can run with no problem untill the Windows task manager point 3GB
physical use of. If I run the wireshark 64bit version (1.2.10), I got
only 2GB... 

Please, how can I supplant this issues? Or these are
wireshark RAM limitations? 

By the way, the capture throughput is about
250Mbps. 

Best Regards, 
Emilio
