Yes, it's known. Solving large problems uses some pretty intense resources in Maxima trying to go a number of recursion levels deep. See the Maxima documentation for algsys, which is usually where this ends up happening. I don't think there is a fix, unfortunately - I've tried! Unless we were to have a way to indicate an interrupt interval to Maxima - which is conceivable, but would have to alter the interface, and so one would have to do it on one's own using the interface class initialization, I guess, if that's possible there. - kcrisman -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
