Dear List,
I encontered with a puzzle. Could you give an advice?
I have access to high perfomance mashines which I want to use to run maxima
They have "uname -a"
Linux sunshine.Stanford.EDU 2.6.18-164.9.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Dec 15 20:57:57 EST
2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
and maxima :
(%i1) build_info();
Maxima version: 5.20.1
Maxima build date: 17:49 5/11/2010
Host type: x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu
Lisp implementation type: SBCL
Lisp implementation version: 1.0.38-2.el5
RAM=12G
The problem is that I meet "the greetings" from ldb
(%i3) batchload("er-et.mc")
Welcome to LDB, a low-level debugger for the Lisp runtime environment.
ldb>
Meanwhile I can do this run easily on my laptop which is Macbookpro5.6
running 64bit linux. It has 4G RAM, kernel-2.6.36, maxima-5.23.2, sbcl-1.0.45
So the differences in program are as follows
server has the old kernel :2.6.18, sbcl is not very old,1.0.38, the version of
maxima-5.20 should not be a problem, beacause I used that version for the same
problem.
What can be a reason? May servers has some patches that don't allow to use
more RAM freely for everyone?
Thanks!
Valery
