This tests garbage collection during compilation. First turn on gc
reports by saying
/gc
To generate /tmp/big.m of chosen size say, e.g.
makebug 10000
to get mira to compile the result say
/f /tmp/big
Saying this repeatedly (or /f %) will force recompilations
Or from the command line after quitting mira
rm /tmp/big.x #to force recompilation
mira -make -gc /tmp/big
If the heap becomes corrupted you will see strange type errors or
"impossible event" messages. From Rick Morgan at Durham, May 1990.
