I've noticed that 'ar' was consuming an enormous amount of memory (more than the paltry 128 of my machine), so my computer trashed quite a bit at this point, as it swapped to and from the swap drive. Could this error be due to running out of memory?
Yes, definitely, since signal 9 is 'kill'. Either your vm system terminates your job because you run out of memory or you are exceeding your ulimits (run 'ulimit' and see if there are any memory limits). -- http://www-i2.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/stolz/ *** PGP *** S/MIME
