Hi Dirk, so the project is open source, you can reproduce the error yourself (but note it’ll take a long time to actually compile it). steps for reproducing: git clone https://github.com/shogun-toolbox/shogun.git cd shogun git checkout feature/shared_ptr mkdir build cd build cmake -DINTERFACE_R=ON .. make make install
(it requires tons of dependencies… if you have docker you can docker pull shogun/shogun-dev and run things inside the container) the make install part runs the R CMD INSTALL so that’ll cause the problem. but i’ve just uploaded the generated R code that causes the problem here, note the script is 7Mb i.e. 175k LoC, so you better wget/curl it: http://maeth.com/shogun.R cheers, viktor > On 2 Nov 2019, at 13:52, Dirk Eddelbuettel <e...@debian.org> wrote: > > > Hi Viktor, > > On 2 November 2019 at 13:09, Viktor Gal wrote: > | I’m developing an ML library that has R bindings… when installing the > library with R CMD INSTALL the R process is running out of memory (50G+ ram) > when doing: > | ** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading > | > | any ideas how i could debug this part of code, to figure out what is > actually happening and why is there a memory leak? > > Easiest for us to help if we can see code -- so if you have a public repo > somewhere please the link. > > I suspect you have some sort of recursion or circular dependency > somewhere.
