In the release for 3.8, it mentions that Nyquist was updated to better use memory. In some ways, yes this is true. I've just tried running a Nyquist high-pass filter on a 45 minute 32 bit mono track in both Audacity 1.3.7 and 1.3.9 In 1.3.7 the peak memory usage was a shade over 500MB, whereas in 1...

Everything that is known to humankind about crash recovery.
You may need some aspirin.
Good luck.

I've done a couple of tests with this. Applying a notch filter to a 1 hour stereo track. My computer has 3GB of RAM.

Please try to be as accurate and detailed as possible in your description of the problem and describe it step by step. Too much information is better than too little.

If you want to experiment and test it for yourself, just write down what settings you start with so that you can revert if you mess it up.

No, Audacity is not able to do that, though it exists as a "Feature Request" for future versions. Would you like your vote adding to the list?
