Hi Nikhil

Using such long sentences will increase the search space, which could lead to 
Moses running out of memory. Is it possible to split the sentences into smaller 
chunks?

Subject: [Moses-support] Multi-threaded mosesserver crashes with large inputs
To: <[email protected]>

Hi all,

I have a multi-threaded Mosesserver running which seems to crash when it
gets input sentences of size > 430 words. (~2000-2300 chars). Point 3 in
http://www.statmt.org/moses/?n=Moses.AdvancedFeatures#ntoc26 does seem to
indicate this behavior and I'm assuming verbosity equals long inputs. Also
this seems to be tied to number of words in input than anything else.

Also, this seems to happen with both KenLM, and IRSTLM (LM's trained with
IRSTLM and run with KenLM ie). Heard from a friend that it happens with
SRILM as well. Moses binary or Mosesserver running in serial mode dont have
these issues though. xmlrpc doesn't seem to be the culprit either, as
serial mode works fine. Wondering if this was fixed in any of the recent
builds or if anyone has insights on how this could be fixed.

Thank you,
Nikhil
