Comment (by vbraun):
Thanks, fixed the MB... its been a long time that I've seen computations
not finish because of `O(1024^2)` bytes of storage missing ;-)
I've also added the appropriate `# 64-bit` vs `# 32-bit` to the offending
doctest.
The pool size is **NOT** allocated ram, it is an anonymous mmap and will
only be used if necessary. 150MB is definitely not enough for serious
computations. If you want hundreds of Sage instances then thats fine, you
just need enough swap. Or, if you prefer, you can set up your desktop
without swap. Then the pool will be backed by actual RAM, but you
hopefully were aware of that when you decided not to have a swap
partition.
Finally, I don't see any benefit in moving/deleting the previous GAP
install. We'll just run into unintended consequences.
