I have a 6-core 32GB RAM machine. ;-) Yet even I am running into out-of-memory problems when running Phobos' test suite in parallel. I used to be able to do it at -j6 (heck, sometimes I did -j8 just to max out the cores while some stuff is waiting on I/O), but nowadays the std.algorithm unittests for whatever reason take an incredible amount of memory to run -- or maybe it's DMD compiling the overly-gigantic std.algorithm clashing with whatever else is running ATM -- and even at -j2 or -j3 I risk seeing random OOM failures. (But this is just my gut feeling, I didn't really look into what exactly was causing the OOMs. All I knew was that adding certain unittests to std.algorithm caused the test suite to OOM. Keeps my unittest-writing frenzy in check. :-P) T -- Some days you win; most days you lose. _______________________________________________ dmd-beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puremagic.com/mailman/listinfo/dmd-beta
