[Chimera-users] problem with a script calculating distance between residues

[Eric Pettersen]

I don't have anything great to add, but you should check to make sure  
it isn't anything obvious.  When Chimera hangs like this, is it using  
a very large amount of memory (use the Task Manager to see how much  
memory)?  Is the disk it's writing to filling up?
