Package: binutils
Version: 2.19.91.20090910-1
Severity: normal

I have observed that for recent versions of binutils, the amount of
memory (RAM) ld uses while creating a statically linked binary for a
program package I use (mainly Fortran90) is much higher than before
(with binutils 2.18). It takes now around 1 GB, whereas before it was
maybe some 100 MBs. Can this be considered a bug or is there any change
in recent versions which could explain this behaviour?

thanks,

Florian
