Also, that 4GB Mac looks like it has at least 4 cores, so Make will fork 4 cc processes, each of which wants 700-1000MB RAM.
Especially if it's only 2-core with hyperthreading, you'll want to limit the concurrent compiles to 2 (I forget the exact args to `translate` at the moment, on the subway). And keep in mind that translating with PyPy takes more ram than cpython! -- taa /*eof*/ On 2012-08-14, at 5:09, Armin Rigo <ar...@tunes.org> wrote: > Hi, > > A quick note: > > On Tue, Aug 14, 2012 at 10:59 AM, Maciej Fijalkowski <fij...@gmail.com> wrote: >> (not sure why your translation take so long) > > Because of swapping: translating on a 64-bit Mac requires 5-6 GB of RAM > ideally. > > > A bientôt, > > Armin. > _______________________________________________ > pypy-dev mailing list > pypy-dev@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
