<p class="MsoNormal">It sounds to me like Nurit is having trouble generating with his own (English) grammar, not with the ERG.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">It's surprising to see an out-of-memory condition for such a short sentence. &nbsp;I recommend passing -vv to the generator. &nbsp;You will see a complete printout of all of the edges (partial analyses) that are generated. &nbsp;You may discover something
 surprising. &nbsp;It will probably produce a lot of output, so piping it to a file will be helpful. &nbsp;The difference vs. the LKB is surprising, so I would be interested in reproducing the problem locally if you are willing to share the grammar files.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Unfortunately, not all of the LUI menu callbacks are implemented in ACE's LUI driving mode, so the errors about browsing edge 6's &quot;generate&quot; are expected. &nbsp;The pipeline approach you took was the right one.<o:p></o:p></p>
