The following is the configuration of my PC . I got it from /proc In short it is a Intel core 2 duo 2.20 Ghz machine with 2 GB of ram and 200 gb of HDD. I need to know is the configuration sufficient for compiling the program. processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 15 model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E4500 @ 2.20GHz stepping : 13 cpu MHz : 2200.000 cache size : 2048 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 2 core id : 0 cpu cores : 2 fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 10 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe nx lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts pni monitor ds_cpl est tm2 ssse3 cx16 xtpr lahf_lm bogomips : 4391.88 clflush size : 64 processor : 1 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 15 model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E4500 @ 2.20GHz stepping : 13 cpu MHz : 2200.000 cache size : 2048 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 2 core id : 1 cpu cores : 2 fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 10 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe nx lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts pni monitor ds_cpl est tm2 ssse3 cx16 xtpr lahf_lm bogomips : 4388.99 clflush size : 64 MemTotal: 2064672 kB MemFree: 1282272 kB Buffers: 120352 kB Cached: 251616 kB SwapCached: 0 kB Active: 415488 kB Inactive: 192468 kB HighTotal: 1169096 kB HighFree: 670592 kB LowTotal: 895576 kB LowFree: 611680 kB SwapTotal: 2031608 kB SwapFree: 2031608 kB Dirty: 40 kB Writeback: 0 kB AnonPages: 235980 kB Mapped: 82784 kB Slab: 30556 kB SReclaimable: 10944 kB SUnreclaim: 19612 kB PageTables: 5216 kB NFS_Unstable: 0 kB Bounce: 0 kB CommitLimit: 3063944 kB Committed_AS: 866304 kB VmallocTotal: 110584 kB VmallocUsed: 6348 kB VmallocChunk: 104088 kB HugePages_Total: 0 HugePages_Free: 0 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 HugePages_Surp: 0 Hugepagesize: 4096 kB On Tue, Aug 12, 2008 at 2:21 PM, Rene Herman <rene.herman@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 12-08-08 09:54, rishi agrawal wrote: > >> I was trying to use the xgprof utility. >> >> Its has a piece of code bundled with it named as "big.c" >> >> On compiling it i got the error message >> >> [root@localhost test]# gcc big.c >> >> cc1: out of memory allocating 19208 bytes after a total of 1803980800 >> bytes >> >> >> so how do i compile it . >> >> On running cat big.c | wc -l the output was 2749876 lines > > The idea is to compile it with gcc -pg as a profiler testcase (through a > plain "make" from the test directory) but that won't make anything better. > > Your total is a little short of 2G which is getting to be close to a value > where you'd first have to answer the question whether you're using a 32-bit > or 64-bit system. > > Assuming though it's 64-bit or 32-bit with the normal 3:1 addressspace > split, the answer's likely just that your patience is bigger than your > amount of RAM + swap. > > When I interrupted the thing it had only grown to 400M (on a 32-bit system) > and didn't seem terribly keen on growing larger than that but if you just > waited a long time there's probably nothing wrong.
