I see the same behavior on my Mac. Even with RandomReal replaced by RandomVariate, the same problem occurs.

On my system (Dell T3400 with 8 Gb Ram running 64-bit Windows 7 Enterprise edition, SP1), the following code works for n<1900: > > n = 1899; > data0 = RandomReal[LogNormalDistribution[1, 5], n]; > survDist = SurvivalDistribution[data0] > Plot[SurvivalFunction[survDist, z], {z, 1, 100}] > > but when n>= 1900, my call to SurvivalDistribution does not evaluate properly. > > I've duiplicated this on a much larger Mathematica v8 Linux server.
