Testing
-------
ld.gold links the viewer on my machine in 8 seconds, as
opposed to 19 seconds with ld.bfd. Moreover, it uses a
LOT less memory during linking (about 750 MB instead of
2.5 GB! (for viewer 1)).
Since my machine locked up hard when I run out of memory
(something with using an encrypted RAID for my swap),
and compiling viewer 2 uses more than 3 GB, I couldn't
compile viewer 2 at all anymore without this patch (and
using ld.gold). And OMG this is fast!
Thanks,
Aleric
