...on an 8-mb 386 with no coprocessor. The first compilation seems to
have been stuck in a loop for nearly thirty minutes; the file is about
700 lines long, with lots of comments and whitespace.
The go32 top line shows that the 3 "memory" numbers are as follows:
the leftmost number cycles from ~300k to ~340k
the middle number is frozen at 140k
the right number is frozen at 16k
Excuse the naivete; this is my first shot at building a C package
with djgpp, though I have used GNAT/djgpp extensively without such
problems. The rightmost memory number usually stays at around 4mb
with GNAT; why is it down at 16k with the C compiler?
Can someone advise? As I've been typing this note (on a different
machine:-)), the first compilation finally finished, after something
like 30 minutes, and moved on to the next one. I am conjecturng that it
is simply swapping to the point of thrashing, but why? Nothing
is changed in my config.sys - I seem to get plenty of memory with
GNAT but thrashing with cc1.exe. What's up?
BTW - where in all the docs is the translation of the values on the
top line? There seems to be lots of useful info there.
Thanks!
