Ghostscript appears to hang processing tests/ps/imagemask-with-pattern.ps with -dDOINTERPOLATE and -r600. It's not clear if it's an actual hang, or just taking forever. Michael says it never leaves s_imscale_process. This command line completes on my machine (x86_64) in 1.2 seconds: bin/gs -Ilib -sDEVICE=ppmraw -o foo.ppm -r600 ../tests/ps/imagemask-with-pattern.ps This command line completes on the same machine in 715 seconds: bin/gs -Ilib -sDEVICE=ppmraw -o bar.ppm -r600 -dDOINTERPOLATE ../tests/ps/imagemask-with-pattern.ps This command hasn't completed on a 'green' cluster node after 7500 seconds: ./bin/gs -q -I$HOME/fonts -dQUIET -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -K1000000 -dMaxBitmap=30000000 -dDOINTERPOLATE -sDEVICE=ppmraw -r600 -sOutputFile="|md5sum>/tmp/imagemask-with-pattern.ps.md5" -dJOBSERVER - < /b/02/atfxsw01/tests_public/ps/imagemask-with-pattern.ps
Passing to Michael, who is investigating as part of his source-space interpolation work.
