Maybe, but I doubt it. More likely something else in your environment is different. We know that you were running firefox during the compile, and the memory usage there depends heavily upon what web pages you had open and the size of the in-memory cache you have enabled. It could even be a difference in gcc versions: I think recent versions of gcc consume more memory for -O3 (due to more optimizations being enabled) than previous versions. -Richard -- [email protected] mailing list
