Now that J8.02 is officially released, I guess this is where to report installation problems. To bad I didn't report it earlier.
In system/util/configure.ijs, line 71 MemoryLimit from config/base.cfg is handled. I wanted to limit J's memory to about 1G, so I set MemoryLimit to 1e9 to prevent J from excessive paging. As in as described for (9!:21) and works as described: 9!:21]1e9 9!:20 '' 1073741824 But the expression on that line expects MemoryLimit to be a number to raise 2 to, in my case, 30. The comments as the top of base.cfg imply that MemoryLimit should be as described for (9!:21). Either the comment needs to be changed or simply change line 71 to: 9!:21 MemoryLimit (9!:21) rounds up its argument to the next power of 2, so there is no need to go to all the trouble to make sure that the number passed is a power of 2. I suggest changing line 71 as people think in terms of how much memory they want, not having to convert it to a power of 2. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
