There is, as you can see, space for extending Datsville a
bit.

I found out that I wasn't working on the latest edition of
"town.pov", and this last sentence seems to have been a bit
too optimistic:

--  Log from running POV-Ray on the latest edition of "town.pov":

object { town01_dot_dat <----ERROR

town.pov:121523: error: Out of memory.  Cannot allocate 256 bytes for transform.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Can it really be true that POV-Ray needs more than 2.5 Gb
memory for rendering Datsville? Or should I set some
parameters to be able to run large programs (on Linux)?
