Yes for limited by memory but GCC should not be as a hug of memory usage as shown by me looking into how to solve memory usage. Yes the garbage collector runs but the problem is we keep around too much still after the compiler like FUNCTION_TYPEs which seems like most of those should be able to be shared. I will attach later today the a tar ball with one of the files since that is really all that is needed to reproduce this bug. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19513
