Here are the two constituent process of a compilation spotted earlier today:
PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND
1897 root 31 0 4224K 4096K STOP 1 0:04 13.32% 7.91% cc1
1898 root -6 0 1616K 1216K STOP 0 0:00 0.00% 0.00% as
So it looks like a round 6M is required for a '-pipe' enabled compilation.
Thank heavens for lower memory prices! :-)

Absolutely. My computer is a free software-only zone. :-)
