When working with datasets from PATHspider it’s very easy to max out your memory. When running an analysis recently, I found my computer locking up and generally being unresponsive. This new machine should be able to cope so this was odd, and then I realised that I was running two jupyter notebooks and the other had previously loaded all the data into memory, so this second one pushed me into swap.
