Thanks for the suggestions, I will try to do that. In the meantime, I tried 7.1 on a machine with 100G of RAM. Now it works, but it costs me 4.3 G of RAM the first time round - that is the same calculation which used 1G in 7.0. Re-running it a few times with or without clobbering BIG - I am not being precise here - shows a steady creep upwards of RAM use in huge chunks, e.g. it climbed to 7G during the third calculation but dropped to 5.7 when it ended and stayed there after clobbering.
I would like to use 7.0 on the 100G machine because I am planning some much bigger calculations and cannot afford this factor of 4 in memory use, but the tarball is not found among the old sources - did someone forget to put it there?
