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,
