Well I first tried making it unlimited. This did not work well with adjusting the dynamic-space-size to 2047 -- an unlimited stack and a big heap give you an illegal instruction when lisp starts up.
I then tried making smaller stack sizes until lisp would start up with the modified stack size and with dynamic-space-size set to 2047. I settle on 100K bytes. (the default on my sun workstation had been 8096 K bytes). This seems to be working. I suspect you are interested in knowing how big the c stack needs to be in order for purify to go through in our application. Unfortunately, the procedure I described above does not let me answer that. So far the only thing that can be said is that 8096 KB is too small and 100000 KB is big enough. If I get a chance in the next couple days, I will try some experiments to narrow the range. Thanks again for all your help. -bill- Raymond Toy wrote: > >>>>> "William" == William Brew <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > William> Good news.
