------- Comment #12 from pixel at mandriva dot com 2007-08-21 13:29 ------- i do know it works nicely with gcc 4.3
but i still get the "memory hog" behaviour using branches/gcc-4_2-branch, ie: % /usr/lib/gcc/i586-mandriva-linux-gnu/4.2.1/cc1 -O2 fail.c runs with memory RSS raising up to 1G many times. i've also tried with gcc-4.2-4.2.1-4 from debian (which has a SVN snapshot from 20070812): % ulimit -v 900000 % /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.1/cc1 fail.c -O2 _create Analyzing compilation unitPerforming interprocedural optimizations Assembling functions: _create cc1: out of memory allocating 4064 bytes after a total of 877277184 bytes -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32723
