Old Synopsis: gcc 3.2.2 cannot compile gtk-gnutella 0.91.9 with -O2 option (was bug 9855)
New Synopsis: excessive memory consumption on GTK file
State-Changed-From-To: open->analyzed
State-Changed-By: bangerth
State-Changed-When: Wed Feb 26 19:51:54 2003
State-Changed-Why:
Confirmed. At one point, memory consumption blows up to
beyond 300 MB, at which point my small machine gives up.
Without optimization, memory use stays below 20 MB, so I'd
say this is a bug.
3.0, 3.2.x, 3.3 and 3.4 all show this behavior. I don't know
whether 2.95 does this, too, since it doesn't grok the
preprocessed sources.
The code is really ugly, one would wish that the GTK people
had chosen a decent programming language for their project... :-(
