Hi Does anybody know where bc stores its calucation while calculating a number. Basically I'm running 36000000^36000000. Now after 12 hours of running I'm beginning to think it wasn't a good idea as I believe it stores its calculation in memory, and I can see I've only got 300M of swap left. If it does store it in memory is there a way to force bc to continually output its calculated results to disk, while storing only some parts in memory. Or is there another tool for this? Thanks Dan
