smart linking MSEide on
64 bit Linux is not possible with 2GB ram,
Linking is a problem of ld, not of Free Pascal. ld was not designed for the
workload we put on it
(especially regarding smart linking). You could try however if the new internal
ELF linker solves
this problem for you (I don't know whether it already supports smart linking;
this is something that
Sergei should answer)
The problem here is that smartlinking is still being done with archives (.a) on
x86 Linux targets,
while ld's preferred mode of operation is section-based smartlinking. Switching to section-based
smartlinking will probably reduce memory requirements to acceptable level. However, FPC does not
handle exported symbols correctly and they get lost if section-based smartlinking is used.
The internal linker of course supports smartlinking, moreover it is not sensitive to the mentioned
exported symbol issue.

Sergei.
