Of course, it will eat 63mb on every XO that it Perhaps someone's hit issues when uncompressing it -- perhaps on an older build? I'd recommend making the large bundle and testing that it unpacks without OOM'ing a "loaded" XO (by which I mean, several activities open so as to create memory pressure). cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

" I'm pretty sure this is nonsense... 63mb should be fine. Of course, it will eat 63mb on every XO that it is installed on, but there won't be any issues with the actual installation or usage.

[Server-devel] splitting large xol
We have a offline dictionary that we'd like to ship as xol. Its tar.bz2 is at 63MB. Reading the instructions, it looks like the bundle will have to be split across two files. http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Content_bundles#Selecting_content We do have a schoolserver in the mix, so hosting both parts will be ok (I hope so!). How do we split the xol across two bundles?
