There was a posting a few weeks ago (http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2007-05/msg00121.html) in which Brian Dessent mentions that he is using a ramdrive for building gcc. Brian, would you mind disclosing a few more details about this? thx a bunch, H. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
