Reading environment from file

[James Hammerton <james@tardis.ed.ac.uk>]

Hi,

With some of the datasets I'm using, my PDP++ projects end up
occupying a lot of memory once loaded, e.g. in one case over 500MB. As
a result it takes a long time to read the project file in. Also I have
problems going over 512MB of memory in that it forces me to do stuff
on another machine which is for general use and I thus impact on other
people's work.

So I was thinking it would be better if I could read in events from a
file, a sequence at a time, on each epoch rather than having them all
stored in memory. Is this functionality available or would I have to
add it myself?

Cheers,

James
