I also encountered several "out of memory" errors at work. After the third one or so, I started taking screenshots, which I have put on this site: http://markus-hd.homepage.t-online.de/vim/ The errors with "_start" in the filename occured on starting Vim, with "_close" on closing it. AFAIR it was always possible to continue working after confirming the message, but I closed and started again. System: - 2G RAM - Win XP, Vim 7.1.242 from cream without cream - Ubuntu in VMware, Vim 7.1.056 Ubuntu package (only 1 error, but with nearly 4G to allocate!?) I'm not sure if the error from 2008-09-17 was the last I got, but I think I got no errors for a long time now. Maybe due to the Vim update or the fact that I currently don't work with VMware any more (which was always or at least mostly running when getting the error with Windows-gvim). If this doesn't help, then let's have it for the statistics. Markus --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
