I want to merge 2 large raster files (7Go+8Go) I got error messages, with a final "Unable to allocate 14.2 GiB for an array with shape (53701, 35412) and data type int64" (see below)

I already manage to generate a 13Go file with the merge command.

Is 14.2 Go an absolute limit (for merging) of the QGIS software ? Is thère another way to merge 2 large raster file ?

(My computer has 8GO RAM + 1To Disk)
