Title: GC overloaded on FreeBSD
ID: 17040
| Product: LispWorks for Linux Version: 4.4 OS: FreeBSD | |
| Description: The following was observed: The program (which conses a lot) approaches 128MB or so, it occasionally stops doing anything and fully loads the processor. I can simulate this behavior if I run (clean-down) from the REPL when the memory is close to that level. The problem is that LispWorks collides with the shared libraries on FreeBSD at around that size of heap. Workaround: Try starting LispWorks with the --relocate-image 0x30000000 command line arguments to move the heap higher. See https://www.lispworks.com/documentation/lw445/LWUG/html/lwuser-308.htm | |
