Re: 9GB libcrypto.a in openssl-1.0.1c
We saw this earlier with another build product. I think the 'ar' program in some of these build environments (oh all right IDEs) is just adding entries to an existing libcrypto.a. I suspect that the build environment extracts 'libcrypto.a' plus some other binaries out of some source control system. Over time such 'libraries' get a little large (is there an emoticon for irony?). I suggest one of at least three options to remedy this: EITHER 1. Removing the libcrypto.a file from the source control system altogether. OR 2. Modifying the source control system so it knows to only check out source files (rather than binaries) prior to a build OR 3. Adding make clean amd rm Makefile before running Configure in the build environment. 2 and 3 are preferable as there may be other files getting large as a result of the build adding object files to existing (that is checked out) binaries. Good luck Dennis and others.

9GB libcrypto.a in openssl-1.0.1c
After a build of openssl-1.0.1c on Solaris 10 with the Sun Studio 12 compilers I was very surprised to see this : # ls -l libcrypto.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9908820968 Jul 17 19:47 libcrypto.a This is a small machine in any case and 9G vanishing into a single archive seems very wrong. Have others seen this sort of result ?

Baron, Philip had the same problem about 12 days ago, browse back in the archives to see the details.
