Dear list,

I am getting a recurring and annoying error from Isabelle Syslog. I am
getting this error mostly when I type LateX text inside the Isabelle/Isar
command *text. *


The error

Could this be caused by Isabelle falling prey to the OOM killer? Try to
reproduce this while observing memory usage.

I get this when the out-of-memory killer reaps the PolyML process. Can
you examine your OS's syslog for anything mentioning OOM (dmesg on
Linux), no idea how to find it on other OSs. ALso check, shortly before
the error occurs, hoiw much memory Isabelle consumes.

16 GB looks fine to me: I would not expect out-of-memory problems with it for
medium sized applications.

Dear all,

Thank you all for the hints. From what I understood, to handle this I have
either to disable OOM killer or create swap space!

@Jakub and Peter: What was your solution? I tried to reproduce the
error but I have been falling for the last 2 days, it looks like
understanding the semantics of OOM killer is a bit complicated!

@Makarius: Thank you for the pointers, indeed very useful links. (BTW I am
not a windows user anymore, namely, I am not using VM to run Linux. I could
not survive in my research by using windows as soon as I started messing
around compilers front-end and backend!Therefore switched for Linux! I
merely use Windows to contribute to the tests of the newly launched
Isabelle App, so I launch up on my developments and report what I observe.)

Best wishes,

Yakoub.

What is medium-size?
the OOM regularly kills my Isabelle sessions on my 32GiB machine, when,
e.g., loading things like
