Let me first start by explaining why this question is being sent to
this list:
I was able to compile the same program on the same machine with the
same amount of swap space and 128 MB less RAM under 3.3-R. I am now
running 4.2-Stable.
uname -a:
FreeBSD chris 4.2-STABLE
FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #0:
Tue Jan 30 10:30:20 EST 2001
chris@chris:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ROVER
i386
Now, on to the problem:
When I try to compile XSB (a Prolog programming language), it gets up
to a point where it tries to compile `builtin.c', and then starts
eating up memory at a frightening rate. Eventually, I run out of swap
space and it dies.
The exact command looks like this:
gcc -c -O4 -fomit-frame-pointer -finline-functions \
-Winline -m486 -ansi -pedantic -Wall builtin.c
Any clue why this is happening?
If you would like to try to compile XSB (for testing this on your own
machine) it is available for download from:
http://download.sourceforge.net/xsb/XSB-2.2.tar.gz.
Any help you can give is greatly appreciated.
