Running out of TRAM memory without warning?
#1147

I have written an OCCAM PROC which, according to the compile info fold, 
will use memory up to #800092e7.  This is of course outside the actual 
memory available on B401-3 (T800 + 32K).  Yet when I load this PROC onto
the transputer (using LOAD PROGRAM), I get no warning that weirdness is 
around the corner.
The first sign of trouble appears when I run an EXE linked to the network 
PROGRAM.  Everything hangs.

My question:  is there any automatic way to tell when the component PROCs
of a PROGRAM require more memory than is available on a TRAM?

Thank you for reading, and, I hope, replying to this query.
