Erroneous error reporting for unsufficient heap

[FrankRuben]

Hi, trying to compile w/o increasing heap size for sbcl will not report an error, but an error for unknown condition class dynamic-heap-space-too-small:

CLML.LAPACK-ENVIRONMENT::DYNAMIC-HEAP-SPACE-TOO-SMALL does not designate a condition class..

Replacing the error reporting w/ (error "dynamic-heap-space-too-small" ...) solves that. Also the suggested 2560 MB seem to be no longer sufficient. I increased up to 2750, where it still didn't compile (stopping now, since it's a pain on my ages-old x201). Anyway very cool project, so thanks for all your effort. I'll be back w/ my shiny new notebook soon ;) Regards, Frank

What version of SBCL are you using? What arguments were passed when starting SBCL?

[FrankRuben]

Hi, I'm on SBCL 1.2.11 on Ubuntu 14.04. I'm starting sbcl as "sbcl --dynamic-space-size 2750 --no-linedit --load /home/frank/quicklisp/setup.lisp". And I'm loading cl-ml using (ql:quickload :clml :verbose t). Usually the compile runs for some time and stops, once I enter a key, it will give me an error about exhausted memory (cannot reproduce currently - my notebook again decides to die before, but it's somewhere in an ldb shell). More info required? Regards, Frank

I believe the lapack system was problematic in 1.2.11. Is it possible for you to try with the current version of SBCL? Perhaps something on the 1.3 branch?

I'm using roswell, and have the same problem: on mac os x

with clozure common lisp 1.11 it works as expected

[paulogeyer]

just had the same problem here, after increasing the sbcl dynamic memory, it built succesfully

perhaps this should be added to the README/INSTALL?

[mmaul]

Addressed both issues: In branch issue-10-Erroneous-error-reporting-for-unsufficient-heap-1 the missing condition was added In branch issue-10-Erroneous-error-reporting-for-unsufficient-heap roswell instructions for increasing dynamic heap space is sbcl was added. Both branches merged to head

I also had similar issues on an old laptop similar to OP. I forgot that I had these lines in my ~/.sbclrc file:

(setf *read-default-float-format* 'double-float)
(declaim (optimize (speed 0) (safety 3) (debug 3)))

After commenting out the above lines, the build was quick.

I think solutions for this issue have been sufficiently discussed
