I disagree. Consider packagers, who may build Parrot on a machine with plenty of memory and distribute binaries to users with much less memory. Instead we can provide user-configurable limits through command-line options or environment variables, and we can catch malloc errors when attempting to allocate more memory and adjust the GC thresholds accordingly. -- c _______________________________________________ parrot-tickets mailing list [email protected] http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-tickets
