There is example code.

No, but that is why god invented swap.
Using swap will take longer than using fast ram.
That said, there might be relevant limits.
On a 32-bit machine,
you will almost certainly be limited to 3 or 4 GB per process.
If that is a problem, you will need to have GLPK run in a separate process.

Of course, if available,
the simplest soution is to free the huge matrix yourself.
