I didn't keep track of how long it took (and it took a while), but I
was able to successfully run the following commands under OS X using
MacPymol 0.95 on a machine w/ 1.5GB RAM.
load 1JJ2.pdb
hide all
show surface

(Windows - Linux is currently not possible since the machine I got
Linux
installed on is too slow) for the 65,000 atoms of the smaller ribosome
structure. Surface rendering of that structure takes about 2.5 min
with an
initial memory usage of about 1.25 GB.
With respect to the crash with 1JJ2.pdb: pymol shuts down immediately
- no
pymol processes running anymore.
Warren proposed to set the surface mode to -1 or -2, but I got the same
result: it crashed again.
After that I thought maybe my new memory is faulty and ran an
exhaustive
memory check - without any errors.
I then selected chain A of the structure and then used 'show
surface,a' ('a'
being the selected protein chain): this worked fine! Three chains:
fine! All
atoms: crash!
I wonder if anybody with a 'decent' machine could try the same and let
me
know if they got the same problem. If not, it's my machine and I won't
bother anybody anymore ;-)
Thanks in advance!
