Category: Runtime System Group: 6.0.1 Status: Open Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Roland Scott McIntire (rscottmcintire) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: RTS Exhausted max heap size Initial Comment: I've lost the exact error message. But basically, the message said to report the error to this project. The message said that the RTS system went over the maximum heap size of roughly 268000000 bytes. The machine I'm running on is running windows 2000 and has 1GB of memory. The version of GHC is 6.0.1. The code was run with the following compiler switches: ghc -O -fvia-c prob.hs -o prob. I've attached the file prob.hs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Roland Scott McIntire (rscottmcintire) Date: 2004-01-03 00:09 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=847023 The last message is not complete. The runtime error message is now: 'Heap Exhausted: Current maximum heap size is (256Mb); use +RTS -M<size> to increase it.' I compiled the sample program from ghci as :!ghc -O -fvia-c +RTS -M500m -RTS prob.hs -o prob and then ran it from the ghci shell as :!prob. My expectations are that the program prob should run or it should fail and complain that 500Meg is not enough. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Roland Scott McIntire (rscottmcintire) Date: 2004-01-03 00:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=847023 I am now using GHC version 6.2.

The heap overflow wasn't reported as gracefully as it could be. Fixed now. You can change the default max heap size to be greater than 256M via the -M RTS option. You do seem to have a space leak on your hands, though. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=108032&aid=833624&group_id=8032 _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
