I have a long-running random simulation that spits out debug messages. I extrapolated that it would take 20 hours to get 5,000,000 samples, and let it run for a day. Here's what I saw when I returned: Welcome to DrRacket, version 5.90.0.9--2013-10-04(876995d5/d) [3m]. Language: typed/racket [c

Then I think that that means that the message came from rep.rkt's no-user-evaluation-message function and that you either should have gotten a dialog with an explanation for why it terminated, or you have the preference 'drracket:show-killed-dialog set to #f. I think that the only two explanations

Probably the check box should make finer distinctions, yes (altho the plumbing inside is the same, as it turns out). And, FWIW setting it to #t will probably only say "you ran out of memory". And at the command line, you don't have drracket hogging all that memory so probably that's the best thing
