Hello,
I have a problem with Xerox Quintus Prolog :
   I cannot do DEEP recursion.
I've partitioned the disk such that I have maximum space - 65000 pages,
but cannot do deeper than 5-10000 levels of recursion on a clean 
sysout. This is interpreted code, compiled code is of 
magnitude 10 better. (The twoliner test program is :
  addone(I, Max) :- I<Max, J is I+1, addone(J,Max).
  addone(_,_).

  ?- addone(1, 10000).     )

IS THIS A REASONABLE RESULT ?! (or are there ways around).

                                    Grateful for any advice,

                                    Eric Monteiro
