Aldy Hernandez <aldyh at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |WAITING --- Comment #8 from Aldy Hernandez <aldyh at gcc dot gnu.org> --- On mainline, with ./cc1plus -O2 -g, I approximately see a maximum of: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 9204 aldyh 20 0 827704 697088 25036 R 99.7 4.3 4:35.01 cc1plus which, though large, is not anywhere close to 6GB. If I'm reading this right, it seems like 697megs. Var tracking seems to be resetting itself after this 697meg usage, and finishing in a sensible manner: b.ii: In function ‘bool {anonymous}::test03()’: b.ii:84991:1: note: variable tracking size limit exceeded with -fvar-tracking-assignments, retrying without With -fno-var-tracking, I see a maximum of: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 9880 aldyh 20 0 478588 347524 24976 R 99.3 2.2 3:14.13 cc1plus So, with var tracking we use 697MB, whereas without we use 478MB, both relatively reasonable IMO. The compilation does take a while on my i7 2.9GHz (4:35 and 3:14 respectively), but all within (annoying) reason. Richard, can we close this PR?
