Hi,
it is a strange problem I have : using either debian's ecl or upstream's
the following code :
(ext:set-limit 'ext:heap-size 0)
(setq a (expt 10 (expt 10 5)))
(setq b (expt a 600))
gives a crash (SIGABRT) "Duplicate large block deallocation".
Where things get interesting, is that I get this code from sage, where
it actually works! What is annoying is that the last line comes from
this test (src/sage/interfaces/maxima.py, around line 570) :
Test that we can use more than 256MB RAM (see trac :trac:`6722`)::
sage: a = maxima(10)^(10^5)
sage: b = a^600 # long time -- about 10-15 seconds
but trac's ticket #6722 is about spellchecking some modules... so I
guess there used to be a problem like the one I have, but I don't know
what was done to fix it.
Does someone remember ?
