I normally compile with only -O which normally doesn't cause any problems with building world (anything higher can cause problems with some code or when using flaky hardware). Do you know how much swap space is available when the machine is idling? Are there any daemons or programs that you can stop to regain some memory usage (X11 can be quite a memory hog)? I haven't run into the same problem that you are experiencing... so the others in the mailing list can provide more insights into the problem than I could. -- Linh Pham lplist@closedsrc.org Webmaster and FreeBSD Geek http://closedsrc.org closedsrc.org Every solution breeds new problems To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
