As a quick note, I have recently been notified that the installation instructions in the documentation instruct users to grab yt-1.5's install script. This was my error, and I apologize -- it seems to have affected both BrianC and another user as well. I'll be updating the docs as soon as I have a new build, hopefully today or tomorrow. -Matt On Fri, Jun 25, 2010 at 1:35 PM, Stephen Skory <stephenskory@yahoo.com> wrote:
Brian,

So it would seem that I'm running up against a memory problem, but what we're hitting beyond that, I'm stumped.
I think you might be running into a known & fixed memory leak in the halo finding stuff. It is fixed in the svn trunk version of yt, and you might consider switching to that. There will be a point release of yt very soon (today or in a few days) if you want to wait for that. There are a whole slew of changes between 1.5 and what's coming, which will be outlined in the announcement email. If you feel up to switching now, you can do that inside the yt-1.5 directory like this:
svn sw http://svn.enzotools.org/yt/trunk python setup.py develop
There are other possibilities, but this is the best one I can think of right now.
Good luck!
