Hi! Does anybody knows what might be causing the "Memory Killed" error while running benchmark and how to workaround it? I'm using Geekbench 3.2.0 x86_64 and testing it against one of those cheap VPS offerings that uses OpenVZ. OS is Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS and kernel is 2.6.32-042stab093.4 x86_64. See attached screenshot.

Thank you!!

    Hi Alex,

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    How much memory does the system have?

    Thanks,

    Hi Alex,

    In order to run Geekbench, officially you need at least 2gB of memory for Linux. The requirements are listed here:

    Let me know if you have any more questions. I would be happy to help,

    Cheers,
