backtracking / functory Goto Github PK

hi, i was trying functory for parallelizing a program in which the workers may handle large-ish matrices. when the matrix size stays below a certain value, parallelization works. when they exceed it, i get

master: ** PID 65367 killed or stopped! **
master: ** PID 65368 killed or stopped! **
master: ** PID 65369 killed or stopped! **
Fatal error: exception Unix.Unix_error(Unix.ECHILD, "wait", "")

any idea what could go wrong? i tried the same with Parmap before and got a failure at the same size; i thought it had to do with memmapped files there but does functory even use those? another data point: this error (still with Parmap) happened only on os x, not on linux..
