>Description:
Use the attached perl script to create a very size C file that
defines a static array and in initializer:
static const int tab[][256] = {
{
// 19000 rows deleted
};
This code is very simple, but it is big. I would expect GCC
to be able to compile this code using a limited ammount of memory.
On my machine GCC takes about 300 Megs to compile this file.
Is this intended behavior?
