Anybody any thoughts on why the tdebase (from git) build is so heavy on ram? It makes building on embedded systems even more arduos than one might expect.
On a desktop PC with 6 cores and 32GB ram, the build uses over 7GB of ram in the first couple of minutes ( I didn't build to the end, just wanted a quick check). Not many embeded systems are that ram abundant :)
On the arm devices I've tried to natively build on, all the ram is used almost immediately (largest ram I have is 2G) and I can throw swap space at it ad infinitum without success.
Cheers, Mike.
That doesn't make much sense given that the armhf/armel builds on Debian/Ubuntu are executing on machines with only 2GB RAM and no swap files. Can you try to isolate specifically which processes are using all that memory during the build?
Thanks!
