What the heck are you compiling that requires over
500M of RAM during the
compilation step? Netscape? I can't even conceive of something that large.
I have a C source file that was generated by automatic translation from a
big pile of assembly code for another processor. It ends up having one C
function containing several *thousand* basic blocks.
This only takes a few minutes and a few megabytes to compile if I turn the
optimizer off. But with optimization enabled...
