out of memory error importing data

[redartajnin]

I was trying to import some good amount of data (in 3-4 GB ticks in a single file), and got this error, any suggestions?

redartajnin,

It looks like you are getting an out of memory issue, which is caused when your memory is insufficient storage space for a particular operation. I would suggest closing any unnecessary programs, or alternatively trying to get more RAM. If you already have a lot of RAM please note that .NET does have some memory usage limitations and you may want to import this file in pieces instead.

Please let us know if we may assist further.

I had similar issue and problem was, that in the imported file was incorrect / missing
LINE_SEPARATOR.
NinjaTrader probably could not read the line, because it was too big (whole file content), which caused OutOfMemoryError.

After LINE_SEPARATOR was properly fixed to standard windows line-separator "\r\n",
whole file was successfully imported.
