Unfortunately, it's not just GCC that grows to several GB: the initial Python
process doing the static analysis grows to the same sort of size too. The
memory it uses can, I'm told, be squeezed down by using pypy (instead of
CPython) to do that part of things, but the bootstrapping process then
becomes nasty (download a precompiled PyPy etc.).
