Reasonable System Configuration

If you have the following machine, you should be able to stop worrying about memory and compilation performance:

This will leave you with about 8 MBytes of free extended RAM. Note that the RAM disk must be 4 MBytes to hold the output of the preprocessor for some exceedingly large source files (notably, some GCC source files). If you don't have that much RAM to spare and still want to compile very large source files, either reduce the disk cache so you can give more to RAM disk, or point TMPDIR to your hard disk.
