Re: [julia-users] Re: Large memory allocation and GC time in fractal renderer

Thanks! I converted the expressions to Horner form using the HornerForm 
command in Mathematica, and then used them in Julia. Memory allocation was 
reduced from 2.2GB to 16MB, and the gc() time was negligible. Strange that 
having + applied to many-term expressions can cause this sort of thing to 
happen. In any case, I learned something new.
