How can I configure SBCL so that it uses more memory than the default

  • 0

How can I configure SBCL so that it uses more memory than the default when I start it by using “M-x slime” in Emacs?

From what I’ve seen online, the answer appears to be to call SBCL, passing the argument “–dynamic-space-size <size in MB>”. Since I do not call SBCL directly, I do not know how to pass it arguments.

I am using GNU Emacs 22.3.1 and SBCL 1.0.48 on Windows 7. I have no experience configuring either, so a novice’s introduction would be appreciated.

    The usual way is to set the value of the variable inferior-lisp-program to the command you want executed, including any options you want to give. Don’t have an emacs on me right now, but this might be enough:

    (setq inferior-lisp-program "sbcl --dynamic-space-size 1024")
