-- apologies if this is a duplicate, I'm having trouble posting to the list --
I just built (as an exercise) a fr-en model based on the first 500K sentences of Europarl. It appears the generated model is just way too big to load on my Windows machine: while trying to load, I see memory/swap going up and up and up to just about 3Gb, then the process aborts. /STATMT/working-dir/model $ ls -l total 1343280 -rw-r--r-- 41328421 Feb 27 09:26 aligned.0.en -rw-r--r-- 47262588 Feb 27 09:25 aligned.0.fr -rw-r--r-- 43062565 Feb 27 09:18 aligned.grow-diag-final-and -rw-r--r-- 211396458 Feb 27 10:40 extract.0-0.gz -rw-r--r-- 209218625 Feb 27 10:50 extract.0-0.inv.gz -rw-r--r-- 162287272 Feb 27 10:28 extract.0-0.o.gz -rw-r--r-- 22179434 Feb 27 09:29 lex.0-0.f2n -rw-r--r-- 22179434 Feb 27 09:29 lex.0-0.n2f -rw-r--r-- 949 Feb 28 13:01 moses.ini -rw-r--r-- 447528428 Feb 28 05:33 phrase-table.0-0.gz -rw-r--r-- 169060574 Feb 28 12:56 reordering-table.msd-bidirectional-fe.0.5.0-0.gz From what I read here, maybe using binary versions of the files would help? Where do I find information on how to use "the binary translation table format" ? Any other suggestions to reduce the footprint?
