After talking to Jeffrey Chu, it seems like what is actually happening is possibly fairly obvious (in retrospect) - the java process runs out of heap space, and there's not even enough memory to keep swank- clojure working properly. Jeffrey tried some examples with just a plain REPL (without SLIME), and managed to get a dead REPL after causing an out of memory error, so there may be more fundamental lower level things going on, and it's not clear that this can really be addressed on the SLIME side.
I'm not sure what a good solution to this problem would be, but I thought I'd post an update for anyone who was curious what the actual issue was. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
