Source: yade Version: Please enable parallel build, with a different safe-guard ;-) Severity: wishlist
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 I build yade in 26minutes [1], fully in tmpfs and I didn't go into swap death. I was building it with 8 parallel jobs enabled, but well I do have enough RAM to support that. By the looks of things it didn't use up more than 1.8GB per cmake job and did not go >>14GB in peak RAM usage. I'd offer to perform the following: * check amount of free ram in GB * set --parallel setting to 1 or floor((free ram in GB)/2) whichever is bigger This will both "safe-guard" unsuspecting low-ram machines, yet still allow unlimited parallel jobs for those who have unlimitted RAM =) [1] http://people.canonical.com/~xnox/boost1.53/yade_0.90.3-1~exp1ubuntu1_amd64-20130327-0049.build Regards, Dmitrijs. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJRUsVkAAoJEIh7YGGLPBau8BAP/jOrPJURxvH2jIx9O8bhSB0T 9WeXwIPfx0QD1NhVavFEvX5Bgzuy3jp9v5OW+WYLOakCXOIf8B15/eRU4YpFCrd4 58NQQ5DaVXH36QeVzUzT0HCI63p8qJ4WI2pdCPqXA+51XzJ1EeyJon8HnMWcjTMJ 4TgUWZZPmJe9Tt/R+JkbOzkv8dZ5BLhadWQk3zh14o4L4WUshZ5uEh85kcsRymPz RNHv9Q3isvGkHmrt+Dz07E1ucAZbBeFFLn2gmTD79oYE4duddAI8ZDozoG2DA6p4 AX/+EC1JU44XqlPs9meBPbloVQyiMpzSJ1kzQR/rC61mS01F3Eg1H4Q4yG5EP6Ud Jr81eUzuFPP6adRlYdFIK6vavBeUuo0/LcphqDZCL5U7VBOx6Awl4iAxO8qrSE9x unOpLb+G0wjhX2s9ZutzEd3Qd2Va2ycbu9tZBIo4AY0IB5bbwsUNZuHmZ0rh9f99 GUc8bbseHsX/yRqOj1/Se71R7av7LUC1ur//bmMn4y96+bE4svg5rbL7onz6vMll YWTINo++4HZxzytt1zQU5gFpD11GWA48wjh8LTUgBEpEyWN7rPehfVs9LDQi/olS Rz9ih2tKGL4c6mGT2Zs82MYqdKy+UKaigL/V9PCYGiOfxROnHdVqimo1qNCU9M4C B+uKIvDj4F/y9Xv3bgnr =CxsQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
