Bug ID: 88604
Summary: Initializing constexpr array consumes all memory
Product: gcc
Version: 8.2.1
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: gcc-bugs at oxyware dot com
Target Milestone: ---
Compiling the attached code with g++ 8.2.1 and no optimisation or compiler
flags causes cc1plus to consume all of physical memory until it hits an OOM
Linux error. Clang compiles this without any problems. I tried this on
gcc.godbolt.org for various compiler versions and the problem is present in
many previous versions of g++.
The problem doesn't appear if numAirports is set to 500 but it does when at the
full 26^3. Also, if latArray[i] is assigned a constant rather than copying a
value from the other constexpr class then it works at full size (26^3). Using
4000, cc1plus peaks at 2.1GB of resident RAM.
