Hm, invoking with e.g. "sbcl --dynamic-space-size 200" might help, I'll have a look. OTOH, the etch (and sarge :-) versions AKA pre-1.0 don't have that option, which could cause trouble for rebuilds. > I've created a swap file of 4 GB, which should give about 9 GB that can > be allocated, and rescheduled sbcl. But I'd like to remove that. Thanks.
