The answer for that is "somewhere between 64MBytes and 8GBytes", at least on kit we have access to. Part of the problem with mips is that it's a *huge* range of hardware, from tiny embedded things to boxes with many tens of CPUs, with 32 bit, 64bit and mixed ABIs, and both big and little endian. We cover it *all* with a single keyword, so we have to do a hell of a lot more testing than is needed for other archs. -- Ciaran McCreesh : Gentoo Developer (Vim, Fluxbox, shell tools) Mail : ciaranm at gentoo.org Web : http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm
