- This may sound crazy, but log in as root and set ulimit top some really
- big value, e.g.
-
- ulimit 999999999
-
- At times, I have had compiles fail in gcc and X11R4/5 because the
- unstripped and debug-padded object code added up more memory than
- my process was allowed to have. Upping the ulimit parameter fixed
- the problem quickly.
-
- Just a hunch, but who knows? Give it a try.
