*sg-default-size*

Variable
Summary

Default initial size of a stack group, in 32 bit words.

Package

system

Initial Value

16000

Description

This variable can be bound around a call to a process creation function. Note that setting the global value of this variable affects the size of all system processes too, so this is not recommended.

Example

To create a process with a stack of 32000 words:

(let ((sys:*sg-default-size* 32000))
  (mp:process-run-function "Larger stack" '()
     #'(lambda ()
         (print (hcl:current-stack-length)))))
