[mary-users] Fwd: Re: Problem starting the mary server

[Marc Schroeder]

Hello Simon,

if I understand correctly you installed *all* languages and voices? This 
is the likely root cause of the "Out of memory error" you report. The 
system will consume much less memory, and start up faster, if you only 
install the languages and voices that you need.

Regards,
Marc
