Which patchlevel? See http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/patches/7.2/README for a one-line summary of each of the more than 300 official patches since Vim 7.2 was released. The ":version" command tells you (near the top) which patches are included, or if it doesn't then you don't have any. > > I try to autoload some python module ( written by myself ) via "pyfile > filename.py" > in my vimrc , and everything goes well except the warning sometimes. > > I think maybe the python script is a bit complex ( about 10 files , > 50K totally ) > but there is indeed a enough memory for vim . > > Is there a memory limit for the vim? yes, see ":help limits". The default memory size for the whole of Vim is either half of your RAM, or an OS-dependent value between 2 and 10 magabytes, whichever is largest; but you can increase or decrease the value, see :help 'maxmemtot' " for the whole of Vim :help 'maxmem' " for each separate edit buffer :help 'maxmempattern' " workarea for pattern matching With modern computers (whose RAM is counted in gigabytes) the former two default to half your RAM, the latter to one megabyte. > Or , does someone see this problem before because the load of some python > code ? Could be -- I don't know how python (and the Vim-python interface, and your python module) manage memory. Do you really have to run that complex a python module inside of Vim? Couldn't you either run it externally (with the :! command or the system() function), or else convert as much of it as possible to vimscript, and only interface to Python for computations that Vim cannot do all by itself?
