I have modified ngspice to use the Boehm-Weiser conservative garbage collector when available. My changes will automatically detect if a dynamically linkable garbage collector is available on configure time. A short description in the NOTES file (new in CVS) tells you where to get the GC and how to compile it for Linux. Read it carefully. I would ask everybody who has to deal with memory intensive circuits to test my changes and share the results. See if ng-spice with GC is able to handle bigger circuits than without a GC. Get it directly from CVS. Good luck and happy hacking, -- Arno
