Sampling Output Memory issue if -length exceeds value on Ubuntu 14.04

[danindiana]

Getting this issue currently:

th sample.lua -checkpoint cv/checkpoint_4450.t7 -length 4452066 > outputtext.txt

Program will run for a long time then eventually quit with error:

luajit: not enough memory

So the program seems to have trouble if your output length exceeds a certain threshold. Note that a length of 445266 will output without issue, but add another digit to that figure and the program hangs for a long time and then quits out with memory error. Note: Char-rnn did not have issues with outputing samples of that size/length (which for reference is about the size of characters w/ spaces of an online version of the King James Bible).

This issue seems related to bug #158 but that open issue hasn't been addressed since Jan 13th so thought to re-open.
