We upped to 1 GB, I believe, and that seems to have helped immensely - in fact, it is now faster for me to calculate on that copy of Sage and render on my computer than to do both on my own computer (which is old and small). So for a not-big class, not too much memory still works. > > c) could easily.

So now I have a healthy class of 30 students successfully using Sage to explore chaos in calculus! They sometimes get slowdowns when there are a number of them on it, but never the total logout except when a local switch is broken, which is of course not Sage-related. Even under quite constrained conditions, it seems to be working quite nicely. Imagine how well a Sage lite would work ;) Thanks, - kcrisman --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
