Hey folks

As was to be expected, my memory problem resulted from a problem in my code. So, just wanted to say thanks for the help and sorry for the hubbub. What might be of interest: I use the CogVM now for the task and I'm really excited how fast it is! I started the same calculations first in the normal VM (4.2.5) and about 5 minutes later in the CogVM. After 30 minutes or so, the CogVM had overtaken the 4.2.5 VM (judging by the progress bar at least).

Cheers, Max

"There is not enough memory to give squeak the amount specified by the 'memory EMBED tag.". Additionally there's a "Premature end of file" error on the image and then the VM crashes (OS X crash dialog). Issuing the same commands with 1 GB memory works fine (no problems with the image).

Interestingly I tried to run the task with 3.5 GB in a 5.7b1 VM over night and the low space warning popped up when the progress bar was have as far then when I ran into the same condition using the 4.2.5b1U VM and 1 GB... Any suggestions? I couldn't attach the VM statistics because of the lacking menu integration but if you tell me how to extract the statistics (supposing they are interesting...) I'll happily rerun the task and post the results.

I had a first failure with 1 GB. I used the 4.2.5b1U VM. Setting the memory to anything above 1 GB would lead to an error message. I'm now trying the 5.7b1 VM with 3.5 GB.

Max

So what is the error message?
