The symptom of twisted going nuts is exactly what happened in the wiki. Which kernel are you using? Can you check kern.log (or is it kernel.log) in /var/log for any oddities? Linux sage 2.6.17-12-386 #2 Tue Dec 18 02:08:33 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/ Linux No oddities in kern.log. - kcrisman --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

Your Sage notebook is probably seriously misconfigured. Not knowing anything further and not having access, I have no idea how. I've never seen the actual problem you're describing though. Just for reference, is there any file or command that would give a complete list of server configuration options as current while the server is running? I honestly don't think we did anything unusual or not by the wiki when setting up, but we are trying several alternate things in a quest to track it down. - kcrisman --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

For instance each new worksheet or user or whatever is via bash -c ulimit -v 50; sage -python -u On my own installation of 3.4 I have similar extremely slow issues in the notebook, e.g. checking whether a Legendre symbol is + or -1 takes around two minutes, with a huge amount due to this process. - kcrisman -- William Stein Associate Professor of Mathematics University of Washington http://wstein.org --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

William The symptom of twisted going nuts is exactly what happened in the wiki. Which kernel are you using? Can you check kern.log (or is it kernel.log) in /var/log for any oddities? The issue on the old sagemath.org was with some probability a hardware issue, i.e. wonky RAM, even though that was never 100% verified.
