Try -Wa,--reduce-memory-overheads (for GAS, although I doubt that will
help much). Also try not using "-Wall" and see if that lowers memory
any. Don't forget that 3.4.4 G++ is object incompatible with 4.3.2,
though. As for why it needs so much RAM, I guess the blame goes to
templates, genericity, or whatnot. Heck, you could even try 3.3.6 or
3.2.3 if necessary. Or Maybe try once with "gcc -v" and then manually
do what it does (without using the gcc driver) to decrease its
footprint a little.

EDIT: Ah, I forgot about this, maybe this will help most of all
(although I'm not sure those values are truly optimal, I think 0 and
4096 will work even better but much slower)?

--param ggc-min-expand=3D10 --param ggc-min-heapsize=3D8192

N.B. You may have to use a response file if it surpasses 126 bytes
cmdline length:   gcc @my_options.txt myfile.cpp
