fatal:NclMalloc Failed:[errno=11]

Dear All,

I have two variables: x is 50yr monthly SST, and xCli is its
climatology monthly SST. And I want to calculate anomaly by using
"xAno = calcMonAnomTLL(x, xCli)".

Variable: x
Type: float
Total Size: 1399680000 bytes
            349920000 values
Number of Dimensions: 3
Dimensions and sizes: [t | 600] x [latitude | 540] x [longitude | 1080]
Coordinates:
            t: [7335..25305]
            latitude: [-89.83333..89.83315]
            longitude: [ 0..359.6663]
Number Of Attributes: 12
  depth : 5.05
  source : Unified Model Output (Vn 6.1):
  name : temp
  title : POTENTIAL TEMPERATURE (OCEAN) DEG.C
  date : 01/09/78
  time : 00:00
  long_name : POTENTIAL TEMPERATURE (OCEAN) DEG.C
  units : degC
  missing_value : 2e+20
  _FillValue : 2e+20
  valid_min : -1.8
  valid_max : 38.67299

Variable: xCli
Type: float
Total Size: 27993600 bytes
            6998400 values
Number of Dimensions: 3
Dimensions and sizes: [t | 12] x [latitude | 540] x [longitude | 1080]
Coordinates:
            t: [24975..25305]
            latitude: [-89.83333..89.83315]
            longitude: [ 0..359.6663]
Number Of Attributes: 12
  depth : 5.05
  source : Unified Model Output (Vn 6.1):
  name : temp
  title : POTENTIAL TEMPERATURE (OCEAN) DEG.C
  date : 01/09/78
  time : 00:00
  long_name : POTENTIAL TEMPERATURE (OCEAN) DEG.C
  units : degC
  missing_value : 2e+20
  _FillValue : 2e+20
  valid_min : -1.8
  valid_max : 35.09643

Obviously, x has 1.4GB and xCli has 24MB. So, the anomaly xAno is
suppose to be 1.4GB, too. An large file.

I am using NCL 5.1.0 under the SunSO. And the error I've got is:
  fatal:NclMalloc Failed:[errno=11]
  Segmentation Fault

How to solve it? Thank you very much!

Thanks,

Liang
