Hi All,

32 bit debug build is impossible long time ago, because linker runs
out of 4Gb address space. Maybe cross compiling on a 64 bit machine
can solve this problem. Is there anyone interested in 32 bit build?

Hi Sachin,

We had the same/a similar problem with QtWebKit.
Ranlib ran out of memory on a 32bit system when building debug, because the 
library got bigger than 4GB.
I dont think there is a proper solution for this problem. The only thing that 
would help would be to reduce the size of WebCore. For now we just disabled 
debug builds on 32bit systems. I heard some people managed to build debug by 
disabling SVG. - never tried it myself though.

Best Regards

I synced up the latest webkit code base and am trying to build webkit
gtk on ubuntu 11.10 with 4gb of RAM and 4 CPUs

I tried with --makeargs="-j2" but still got "ld process terminated
signal[9]" error  which indicates that it ran out of memory.
I suspect i will still the get the same error with --makeargs="-j1".
Is there any other flag where we can restrict the memory usage?

Sachin
