Hello; One of the most annoying things I find is that sometimes I get an $Aborted message from the kernel during long computation, but no idea why and from where. There are no error messages in the 'message' window either. This happens in this context: I use Manipulate, and in my code (which Manipulate calls), I do long computation, then once in a while I see an $Aborted message show up where the plot should show up. This happens when I set the length of computation to be larger. when 'n' is small, this does not seem to happen. I do not think this is a memory problem. The code runs correctly, but once 'n' becomes large I see this message pop up, and it happens at different stages. Any idea what could be going on? Could Manipulate have some timing limitation on how long the kernel is kept busy while the interface is waiting for the result back? I can put link to my notebook which shows the problem. thanks, Nasser
