#5295 koji build fails with memory exhausted
Closed: Invalid None Opened 11 years ago by sailer.

Building mingw-wxWidgets currently fails with memory exhausted:

Creating library file: /builddir/build/BUILD/wxWidgets-2.8.12/build_win64_shared/lib/libwx_baseu_net-2.8-x86_64-w64-mingw32.dll.a
coredll_collpaneg.o: could not read symbols: Memory exhausted
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [/builddir/build/BUILD/wxWidgets-2.8.12/build_win64_shared/lib/wxmsw28u_core_gcc_custom.dll] Error 1

What should I do about this? ld requires approximately 6-7GBytes to link this DLL. What is the current koji memory limit?


the builders all have 4gb of ram and 4gb swap

I found a workaround for the linker memory consumption.

It seems to me that gcc and friends seem to grow memory usage faster than our builders can provide it. You might want to tar and feather Jakub, or think about increasing memory allocation to the builders. I'd prefer the second option ;)
