[graph-tool] Re: memory handling when using graph-tool's MCMCs and multiprocessing on large networks

hi,

i was wondering if anyone had any tips on conserving memory when running graph-tool MCMCs on large networks in parallel.

i have a large network (2GB), and about 260GB of memory, and was surprised to receive a MemoryError when i ran 10 MCMC chains in parallel using multiprocessing. my impression is that MCMC was relatively light on memory.

As usual, it is not possible to say anything concrete without a minimal complete working example that shows the problem. -- Tiago de Paula Peixoto <tiago@skewed.de>
