DJ> after adding swap space increase the limits. I'll try. I already have 192M of swap. But on kernel 2.4.7 my system could lock up in case of heavy memory usage by g++ or ld. Now I am using 2.4.13, with new VM things might be better... But: in case of memory shortage g++ uses tmp files and in many cases can compile even very big source. It's not good that I can't say this about ld. 500 megs of free disk space could not help ld. :( >> Where can I find any docs on debug info formats comparison? gcc docs just say >> "this format used in old System V systems", "this format used in old BSD >> systems". >> It may be interesting for historics, but do not help in my case.
