Great. If you have a bit of time, I'd be interested if you can exhaust its RAM or something else. It will be quite slow compared to a modern machine, although it is about twice as fast as 't2' for single threaded tasks. But for parallel code, 't2' will be considerably faster than this machine. Sage was started with ulimit='-v 500000' which I believe limits the memory to 500 MB. I assume that is for a single user or single process. There is 6 GB RAM allocated to the zone. -- To post to this group, send an email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
