Well, the memory blow-up occurs when the process is forked to run palp in a subprocess. However, it occurs as soon as the fork() occurs. So this might be a Cygwin oddity. To be clear, this is not something that happens normally, so it is still bizarre. But at least this suggests that it's not just some memory leak in cause by code in Sage, at least I don't think. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
