Hello,

In the last few weeks, I have been playing with the "Baseline", on a
Ubuntu virtual machine hosted by Virtualbox on Windows 7 64bit with 8GB
RAM and 4-core CPU, and 200G allocated HD space. How, I am stuck in the
following places:

~/mosesdecoder/bin/processLexicalTable \
-in train/model/reordering-table.wbe-msd-bidirectional-fe.gz \
-out binarised-model/reordering-table


This runs several minutes, and then it starts to draw dots, one by one,
before its suddenly exits to the prompt, without any warning. Then I
try the following

~/mosesdecoder/bin/moses -f ~/working/mert-work/moses.ini

The program runs for quite a while and then declares something like
"killed" and exits.

I have even tried the binarised-model, with moses.ini modified
accoringly, but it exits, warning about missing "reordering-table".

I have searched online and it seems that my RAM is too low. Is that so.
If so, how much RAM should I have?

Kindest,
Wei

Hi,

The kernel kills process when it runs out on memory. Run dmesg and you
will likely see evidence to this effect. As to how much memory you
need, I don't know for the baseline, but I will say that 32 GB is the
lowest I've run experiments on in the past couple years.

Thank you for your info, Ken. Should it help if I had a large and fast
disk, say a SSD?

An SSD will speed everything, but it will not solve the problem of
running out of memory. Your guest virtual machine should have the
following guest resources over and above the host resources:

1) 64-bit guest operating system
2) 4 GB or more available guest RAM
3) 250 GB or more available free virtual guest hard disk space

Hi Wei

The baseline system is relatively small, as MT systems go. I built it on
a laptop with 8G RAM, but it may well build with less RAM,

cheers - Barry
