I also think that
{{{
suggested_size = max(int(mem.available_swap() / 10),
int(mem.available_ram() / 50),
# in case you run without swap
75 * 1024**2 ) # about 75MB
is the minimum to run GAP
}}}
is way too much for machines with a lot of RAM. E.g. I tried this on
sage.combinat and got 3.6GB as the {{{suggested_size}}}.
I'd rather propose
{{{
suggested_size = min(150 * 1024**2,
max(int(mem.available_swap() / 10),
int(mem.available_ram() / 50), # in case
you run without swap
75 * 1024**2 )) # about 75MB is the
minimum to run GAP
}}}
for 150MB is certainly good enough, but would not lead to problems if you
have a hundred instances of Sage running on the same machine.
