--- Comment #4 from Gordon Cichon <gordoncichon at gmail dot com> 2012-11-13 08:33:01 UTC --- Why is GCC comsuming so much memory? The program has 6.4MB source code, it is a single function. All optimizations are turned off. And there is 2GB memory in the system. Well, shouldn't it be possible to compile this program?
