Dear Jochen, Thank you very much! This explains a lot... Actually we tried to run NEST simulation with mpi4py... Probably the problem is that our attempt was to assign it to only one of the processess. The interesting thing is that we run Simulate in all parallel process, it works.

Best,Petia

Dear Petia,

this looks a lot like you run out of working memory (RAM) on your machine. You can check the memory consumption by adding print('Memory before Simulate():', nest.ll_api.sli_func('memory_thisjob')

right before your call Simulate(). The printed number is in kiB

I am afraid that we can’t do much else for you here.

Best regards, Jochen!
