Hi Luigi I think it is okay. I'll remove this conditional so that applicable to i386. I think I must rewrite the patch to effective on i386 as well.
Note, please do not send me a patch other than Makefile. There is a SCA or JCA issue... I'm very busy these days and I'll attend OpenOffice.org conference 2008 very soon, please be patient. thanks, From: Luigi Rizzo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: unreasonable amount of memory used in openoffice build Date: Sun, 19 Oct 2008 16:52:34 +0200 > hi, > i noticed on my laptop (Dell X1 w/ 512MB ram - i386, RELENG_7 that > openoffice3 is using an unreasonable amount of memory to build one > of its components (during the build of resourcemodel, the offending > file is unxfbsdi.pro/misc/qnametostr.cxx) which causes the build > machine to spend a huge amount of time swapping. > > It seems to be a known issue > > http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?format=multiple&id=215291 > > and our port includes a workaround that is applied only on amd64 > with the following section in the port's Makefile: > > .if ${ARCH} == amd64 > WITHOUT_MOZILLA= yes > LIB_DEPENDS+= boost_regex:${PORTSDIR}/devel/boost > CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --with-system-boost=yes #i58343# > .if (${OSVERSION} >= 700042) > EXTRA_PATCHES+= ${FILESDIR}/amd64-gcc42-workaround > .endif > .endif > > I would suggest to apply the fix unconditionally (at least by default, > possibly override it with some build option if needed). > On amd64 according to the above URL the problem is particularly bad > as it requires more than 4GB of memory (RAM/SWAP) but even on i386 > the compiler process grows well above 1GB of memory and together > with other stuff (browser, X and more) easily consuming 2-300MB > each, it is not unlikely to hit the swap on many boxes. > > Makes sense ? > > cheers > luigi > _______________________________________________ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-openoffice > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
