Many thanks, memory seems to be a big problem on my server (I did
tests you suggested on my laptop and each worksheet is consumig a lot
of memory). I have seen that sagenb.org has 2GB memory - like my PC.
How many users wirk simultaneously on sagenb.org?

* I think that I can set up my personal computer as second sage server
for my class
      Is it sufficient to move the ~/login/.sage directory to clone
all the work  to the second server?

* I will ask our webmaster to increase memory on my virtual server on
Mondays :)
      But it supprised me that sage is so memory demanding :(
      The students were asked to calculate nothing more than few
limits and draw some 2d graphs.

* Is there any other possibility how to decrease the memory demand? I
tried to open 17 notebooks with  notebook(ulimit="-v 10240") but this
did not help. The demand for memory was the same as for notebook()
command.

I wonder how the others use sage in education. Do they have so big
memory on their servers?
Thank you very much.

Robert
