P.S. building under solaris requires over 2GB memory (and takes a day)
It's only have half of this. I've mixed up "du -s" (showing Blocks) and "du -sh". My tree also included a binary-dist. -bash-3.00$ du -s 2266972 . -bash-3.00$ du -sh 1.1G . -bash-3.00$ cd ghc-6.6/ #this is the binary-dist only -bash-3.00$ du -sh 331M .
It takes 12 hours on my old 500Mhz sparc with 1GB ram. I know split-objs takes lots of memory when building the archive, but 2GB seems excessive.
Judging from the first and last created files (below) it took 9 hours on my machine: Model: Sun Fire 280R Memory Size (MB): 3072 Processor Speed (MHz): 900 -bash-3.00$ ll utils/mkdependC/mkdependC -rwxr-xr-x 1 maeder wimi 6057 Oct 20 16:54 utils/mkdependC/mkdependC -bash-3.00$ ll compiler/stage2/ghc-6.6 -rwxr-xr-x 1 maeder wimi 21069118 Oct 21 01:52 compiler/stage2/ghc-6.6 Cheers Christian fast 3:30 hours took: Hardware Architecture: pc Operating System: solaris10 Model: AMD Athlon-64 Memory Size (MB): 1024 Processor Speed (MHz): 2000 -bash-3.1$ ll utils/mkdependC/mkdependC -rwxr-xr-x 1 maeder wimi 6054 Nov 2 13:21 utils/mkdependC/mkdependC -bash-3.1$ ll compiler/stage2/ghc-6.6 -rwxr-xr-x 1 maeder wimi 20629720 Nov 2 16:49 compiler/stage2/ghc-6.6
