Memory problem with ngram-count

[Kevin Duh]

Hi,

I'm running into some memory limitations with ngram-count and am 
wondering if anyone has any suggestions.

I have a very large text file (more than 1GB) as input to ngram-count. I 
divided this text into smaller files and used the 'make-batch-counts' 
and 'merge-batch-counts' commands to create a large count-file. Then, I 
tried to use 'ngram-count -read myfile.counts -lm ...' to estimate a 
language model. I receive the following error:

ngram-count: /SRILM/include/LHash.cc:127: void LHash<KeyT, 
DataT>::alloc(unsigned int) [with KeyT = VocabIndex, DataT = 
Trie<VocabIndex, unsigned int>]: Assertion `body != 0' failed.

Does anyone have any suggestions for solving this problem?

Thanks in advance,
Kevin
