Hi, I'd like to add some numbers to this. I'm building (and using) CS on an AMD Athlon XP 1800+ (no idea of the exact model, sorry), 1.4GHz, with 512MB memory and 500MB swap disk. Building took 1-2 hours until I updated from SVN one or two weeks ago. Since then I experience the problems described: On hitting cs_pyth.o the build process comes to a grinding stop. First memory gets filled, the kswapd starts claiming more and more processor time until the whole system becomes irresponsive (logging in and starting top took me about twenty minutes from a remote terminal, the time between me hitting a key and the monitor switching on from standby is about ten seconds). I've let it run for >6 hours, IIRC even >10, then wimped out. Once I re-ran jam after that and building skipped cs_pyth.o (whyever). Two more targets failed, but IIRC they depended on Python bindings. However, build time was fine. Also, I'd rather call it stating an unpleasant fact, far be it from me to complain, especially here. :) Liebe Grüße, Sebastian Hoffmann -- "Glücklich zu sein ist oberste Bürgerpflicht." -- Paranoia, West End Games "Oh, look at the time, 1984 already." -- Daria (MTV) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
