Dear OCaml-list,

I use OCaml under 64-bit Linux to do signal processing simulations of next generation optical storage devices. So far, I have really enjoyed programming in OCaml, e.g. as program texts are considerable shorter than in C++ for computations that involve many arrays. My computations run for many days if not a week, and produce output files of ca. 20 MB. I run them in a job queue.

Recently I have been plagued by programs that crash when I do a "grep" on the output file (opened with open_out). E.g. the program has been running succesfully for a few days. I do a "grep @ *.out" in the directory to monitor progress as important lines in the output file start with a "@". A few minutes later I receive mails from the queuing system saying that everything crashed.

What is the cause of these crashes? Can somebody give me a clue?

Thanx,

Andries
