Re: [Pharo-users] More than 500MB for windows

+1 and we are not users. We are programmers :) Stef > I disagree. I think it is good if the VM is able to adapt so in the case where no switch is used the VM does its best to adapt to the requirements. But there are _always_ use cases where you need to fine-tune. If you have an application that leaks memory you certainly want to restrict the maximum memory it can waste. Theoretically this happens when the OS runs out of memory and so the application will die. But before doing this secondary memory is allocated (mostly swap space) that when used kills the whole machine instead of just your application. The alternative is to use the OS to limit the resource (e.g. using ulimit) which is not working all the time. > > I think having those switches and being able to ignore them for most of the time is a good model to head for. > > Norbert > >

>> > Yes, i wish we can be there today. > (And one day people will learn a difference between actual memory used > and reserved address space :) Igor this is not that we are not aware that Moose should be implemented differently but it is not simple. - the first design in 1998 was with a database access in mind so we were always doing aModel giveEntityWith: anId instead of using pointers. - I was fedup not to be able to pointers so we went to a pointer solution. - we have a mechanism to represent less objects but losing granularity. - Now cutting a graph of objects is not simple. We were thinking to see if we can use marea. The problem is that if one object of the graph is use then the part of the graph that was saved with it will be loaded back in memory and if we have not enough memory this is even more a problem. So I do not really know how to do it. Because
