Greetings!
One immediate thing you can do is (setq si::*optimize-maximum-pages*
nil). This will result in quite a bit more gc time, but will keep the
heap size to an absolute minimum. A less draconian measure is to
preallocate more cons pages before the run to prevent the memory
balancing
I notice some strange behavior in the make install (cvs version).
1)
the INFODIR must have a dir file (configure problem actually)
2)
the command
cat $(DESTDIR)${EMACS_DEFAULT_EL} | sed -e '/BEGIN gcl/,/END gcl/d'
$(DESTDIR)/temp_emacs_default
in elisp/makefile will fail if DESTDIR is empty
