Subject: [Q] crash on running mf

Hi, all:
I have a big problem on running mf. I just installed web-6.1,
web2c-6.1, lib-6.9, xdvik-18f, dvips-5.58f on aix 3.2.5.
Things are going fine for TeX and LaTeX. But when I tried to
produce pk files, things go wrong. I tried to make cmssbx10
in 300dpi on cx mode, on mag=1.0 and 1.5 are fine. But on mag=1.2
it crashed. here are error messages:
======================================================================
kpathsea: Running MakeTeXPK cmssbx10 360 300 magstep\(1.0\)
/usr/local/bin/MakeTeXPK: Running mf \mode:=cx; mag:=magstep(1.0);
scrollmode;
input cmssbx10
This is METAFONT, Version 2.71 (C version 6.1)
[...]
(/usr/local/lib/texmf/fonts/public/cm/src/greeku.mf [0] [1] [2] [3] [4]
[5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10]) (/usr/local/lib/texmf/fonts/public/cm/src/romand.mf
[48] [49]/usr/local/bin/MakeTeXPK: 37114 Memory fault: A memory image
file is
created as "core".
kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log.
======================================================================
Then, I tried to grab the new mf files from CTAN, still crashed.
Recompile mf, same things. Finally, I run the trip-trap test come
with the package, and found following problems:
======================================================================
! METAFONT capacity exceeded, sorry
[main memory size=3001].
l.91 ...,2); show e3 rotated-90,
(e0+e0) rotated90$ rotated90;
If you really absolutely need more capacity,
you can ask a wizard to enlarge me.
Here is how much of METAFONT's memory you used:
23 strings out of 887
90 string characters out of 11505
3001 words of memory out of 3001
280 symbolic tokens out of 9500
4i,43n,8r,6p,105b stack positions out of 30i,100n,300r,150p,500b
Output written on trap.72270gf (2 characters, 248 bytes).
===================================================================
Look like mf memory not enough.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
