Hi Nick, You can use the argument like this,
scons build/RISCV/gem5.opt –limit-ld-memory-usage -j`nproc` I was able to compile gem5 with docker with 6GiB of RAM, and was not able to do that with 4GiB of RAM. I think you already hint at a better solution, which is to use build the docker image on a different machine, and bundle the gem5 binary to the docker image. Then you can distribute the image to the Jetson. Regards, Hoa Nguyen On Fri, Mar 15, 2024, 06:27 Beser, Nicholas D. <nick.be...@jhuapl.edu> wrote: > Hoa, > > > > Thank you for your suggestion.
