Hello,
I am running out of heap size with maxima compiled with cmucl (running on
Linux). I get
*A2 gc_alloc_large failed, nbytes=248.
CMUCL has run out of dynamic heap space (512 MB).
You can control heap size with the -dynamic-space-size commandline option.
I have tried to do that, but it doesn't seem to work. I only get the
following, but i don't recover the prompt:
hercule% bin/maxima -v "-dynamic-space-size 1632"
+ '[' cmucl = clisp ']'
+ '[' cmucl = cmucl ']'
+ '[' true = true ']'

If i remove the -dynamic-space-size 1632, then i get the maxima prompt.
Could you help me to do the proper invocation? By the way i know that the
computation is very big and i am willing to wait several hours to get the
result. Going to 512 Megs takes around an hour, and then crash ...
Thanks a lot.
