I’m trying to create a local mirror of LinkedGeoData.org from this dump.
That’s around 61,000,000 triples. Virtuoso is supposed to easily handle a lot more than that, but every single time it stops loading after around 40,000,000 triples. I’m using a double extra large instance from Amazon EC2 which has 30 GB of RAM, with plenty of storage space left too. Is there something wrong with my config file? I’m using ubuntu server 12.04, and I’ve tried installing Virtuoso through apt-get (version 6.1.5) and compiling from the latest stable source from github (version 6.1.6) following Jörn Hees’ instructions.
I’ve also tried splitting the dumpfile into smaller pieces and loading them one by one. This also breaks down after around 40,000,000 triples have been inserted.
The logfile doesn’t show anything strange; virtuoso-t just stops working without actually crashing, and top shows the process using 0% of the CPU. I’ve left the process running for several days without any progress after the first half hour or so.
Here is my virtuoso.ini file:

; Striping setup
;
; These parameters have only effect when Striping is set to 1 in the
; [Database] section, in which case the DatabaseFile parameter is ignored.
;
; With striping, the database is spawned across multiple segments
; where each segment can have multiple stripes.
;
; Format of the lines below:
; Segment<number> = <size>, <stripe file name> [, <stripe file name> .. ]
;
; <number> must be ordered from 1 up.
;
; The <size> is the total size of the segment which is equally divided
; across all stripes forming the segment. Its specification can be in
; gigabytes (g), megabytes (m), kilobytes (k) or in database blocks
; (b, the default)
;
; Note that the segment size must be a multiple of the database page size
; which is currently 8k. Also, the segment size must be divisible by the
; number of stripe files forming the segment.
;
; The example below creates a 200 meg database striped on two segments
; with two stripes of 50 meg and one of 100 meg.
;
; You can always add more segments to the configuration, but once
; added, do not change the setup.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Answering my own question. The problem were the leading spaces in the lines
Deleting those, Virtuoso actually used the available memory instead of the default 16MB.
