Hey all, Mini-update: got the unit tests for the global value numbering pass more up-to-snuff awhile ago (it's like test-driven development in reverse!). Still seems like I should be doing more to test the new capabilities, but I'm not sure if I could do much more than what's there.
My efforts as of late have been focused on some GVN improvements. But for the past way-too-long, I thought I had broken something catastrophic because `load-all test-all` would invariably crash the listener with an "out of memory" error: Out of memory Nursery: Start=831c0000, size=100000, end=832c0000 Aging: Start=82fc0000, size=200000, end=831c0000 Tenured: Start=50c80000, size=32140000, end=82dc0000 Cards:base=b44d0008, size=326800 Aborted After a lot of very slow debugging (them's the breaks when running all the unit tests, I guess) that was ultimately fruitless, I finally tried out Factor 0.95 straight from the build farm---none of my changes, no .git, just a clean download of the linux-x86-32 tarchive. And, what do you know, `load-all test-all` still crashes with the same error. It hadn't done that before, so I think the issue may be an intervening OS update I did. I'm running a fully up-to-date Debian testing, kernel 3.2.0-3-686-pae. 1) Can anyone reproduce this error? Or is my machine just that jacked up? I'd be happy to provide other diagnostic info, if it'd help. 2) Any coping mechanisms? I considered just throwing a bunch of memory at it with command line switches (-young=, -aging=, -tenured=, etc.), but wasn't really sure how much would do the trick, since it just started crashing like this out of the blue anyway.
