hi, I setup the mdce with 4 pc, each with 8nodes. I find that when I setup the mdce, each nodes itself, without running any program, consumes nearely 1.5G memory. is it normal?

Hi,
Some clarification: by "node" you mean "worker"? So when starting your workers each worker consumes 1.5 GB without running any tasks?
Hmm, huge memory consumption of MATLAB without doing anything is most often related to having a large java heap space reserved. Do you have some java.opts file lying around specifying the heap size (i.e., including some "-Xmx1024" or similar?

Hi,
take another look at the task manager: go to the menu for "choose columns": there are several "memory" columns, e.g. something like "private" memory. Does they show the same? Second: is there somewhere a checkbox "show processes from all users". Does it show something? 8*180MB is far away from 12GB ...
