AND ... > It is really slow !!!!! > The slowest compilation I ever seen ! Here's my recommendations: 1. Get more RAM. I have 8Mb in my system and it's barely enough. 2. Leave enough RAM free for go32 to use to prevent paging. 2. Use the rest of the memory for disk cache and/or ramdisk. I use most for cache. Paging will kill you every time if you're not careful. Rebuilding gcc itself with -O requires at leasat 4Mb of FREE extended memory to prevent paging. I recommend at least 2MB free for small to average sized source files, an extra 1Mb for -O.
