We investigate the finite-size scaling behaviour of the free-energy barriers which are visible in the probability density of the Parisi overlap parameter. Assuming that the mean barrier height diverges with the number of spins N as N^alpha, our data show good agreement with the theoretical value alpha = 1/3.7 pages, 4 figuresDisordered Systems and Neural NetworksFree-Energy Barriers in the SK Modeltext
