A recent patch increased GCC's memory consumption!


Hi,

I am a friendly script caring about memory consumption in GCC.  Please
contact jh@suse.cz if something is going wrong.

Comparing memory consumption on compilation of combine.i, insn-attrtab.i,
and generate-3.4.ii I got:

The results can be reproduced by building a compiler with

--enable-gather-detailed-mem-stats targetting x86-64

and compiling preprocessed combine.c or testcase from PR8632 with:

-fmem-report --param=ggc-min-heapsize=1024 --param=ggc-min-expand=1 -Ox -Q

The memory consumption summary appears in the dump after detailed listing
of the places they are allocated in.  Peak memory consumption is actually
computed by looking for maximal value in {GC XXXX -> YYYY} report.
