Does anyone know how to enlarge the memory limits set by sage?
I get the following message when running a certain computation that
involves computing large determinants.
Memory limit reached. Please jump to an outer pointer, quit program
and enlarge the
memory limits before executing the program again.
Available restarts:
1. (CONTINUE) Extend heap size
Top level.

By googling and searching the archives of this group I found that I
was supposed to add a line that reads
maxima._eval_line(":lisp (ext:set-limit 'ext:heap-size 100000000000)",
wait_for_prompt=False)
I have tried this and it has absolutely no effect. I am using the
precompiled sage-4.7.1-linux-32bit-ubuntu_10.04_lts-i686-Linux . As a
workaround it is possible to press :r1 every time this error message
appears and indeed I had to do that twice to get this computation to
finish. The machine it is running on has ample memory and sage was
only using about 6 percent of the available system memory when this
error happened the first time.
Any help appreciated,
Eric
