[mary-users] Extremely lengthy portions of text error out

[Marc Schroeder]

Hello Josh,

are there paragraph boundaries (= empty lines) in your text? MARY breaks 
up text into processing chunks at paragraph boundaries.

I admit I haven't tried to synthesise 5000 words at once; at the very 
least what it will do is queue the audio data in memory before sending 
it. Of course this could be temporarily saved to disk with some 
programming... if we find a person to do that.

Best regards,
Marc
