I see a very slight pause around the 4GB mark, and again at 8GB (probably as the allocated pages actually get touched) but it keeps going well past that. This is a 64GB machine, so it suggests that the problem is local to your system. Please provide the missing information requested when you created this bug, see https://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/
