Old description:

> Use qepcad to simplify formulas. It works fine on the following simple
> input.
> {{{
> sage: x, y = var('x,y')
> sage: ellipse = 3*x^2 + 2*x*y + y^2 - x + y - 7
> sage: circle = x^2 + y^2 - 3
> sage: qe = qepcad([ellipse < 0, circle < 0])
> sage: qe
> y^2 + 2 x y + y + 3 x^2 - x - 7 < 0 /\ y^2 + x^2 - 3 < 0
> }}}
> However, calling qepcad a few times causes a crash.
> {{{
> sage: qe = qepcad([ellipse < 0, circle < 0])
> sage: for i in range(200):
> ....:     qe = qepcad([ellipse < 0, circle < 0])
> OSError: [Errno 35] Resource temporarily unavailable

> One gets the following similar error if `interact=True` option is used.

New description:

 {{{
 sage: x, y = var('x,y')
 sage: ellipse = 3*x^2 + 2*x*y + y^2 - x + y - 7
 sage: circle = x^2 + y^2 - 3
 sage: for i in range(1000): qe = qepcad([ellipse < 0, circle < 0])
 OSError: [Errno 35] Resource temporarily unavailable
 }}}
 One gets the following similar error if `interact=True` option is used.
 {{{
 RuntimeError: unable to start QEPCAD because the command
 'env qe=/Users/yzh/sage/local qepcad' failed:
 Pexpect: pty.fork() failed: [Errno 35] Resource temporarily unavailable
 }}}
