GAPError: Error, reached the pre-set memory limit (change it with the -o command line option) #31205
Comments
comment:1
Proposal: "There are two options. a) If you are in an interactive session, you can run the command again. GAP with retry with twice b) You can start a new sage session, or a new batch run, and set the memory limit in advance Beware however that an excessive memory consumption might slow down other processes I don't know if there is any situation where the "-o command line option" message How is the standard limit determined?
I get different results on different computers, and it decreases on successive calls. |

"GAPError: Error, reached the pre-set memory limit
(change it with the -o command line option)"
A) intercept this error message and provide meaningful info for
unsuspecting users. (at least for notebook interface,
i don't know about commandline) Something like this:
"1) you can simply repeat the calculation, and it will
use a larger memory limit."
(I found this by googling, and it works)
"2) Beware however that an excessive memory consumption might slow down other processes
on the computer."
B) How is the user supposed to "change it" with a command-line option?
Maybe a way to set this can be provided
(The current status is a nuisance: I had a lengthy calculation with
subgroups in a loop. First it stopped with the "o flag" message after
30 seconds. On restart, after 1 minute or so. Eventually
I had to restart it a few times. It about took 15 minutes.
Half of it was wasted because I had the restart from scratch.
(and I had to watch whether it was proceeding.)
Depends on #34041
