    That raises questions: how much RAM do you have, what OS are you running, and are you absolutely, positively sure you copied the code correctly?

    If you're not extraordinarily short of RAM (absolute value will vary by OS) and your code is correct, it would be a kindness to the module's author and others unknown to see if you can identify the cause of your problem... and to file a bug report if relevant.

      Hum ... perhaps I didn't say things properly. I wanted to avoid using too much memory not that I couldn't use the memory. I was just wondering if there would be more efficient as with 10m numbers, that is using nearly a gig of memory. The problem of not getting 25th percentile as far as I'm aware isn't due to any memory issues. Sorry if I cause confusion there.
