[Bug middle-end/27881] [4.1 Regression] Memory exhausted with -finline-functions on testsuite file alias3.C

["rguenth at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

------- Comment #3 from rguenth at gcc dot gnu dot org  2006-06-07 13:43 -------
Recursive inlining causes memory usage to grow exponentially.  The current
default limit is

DEFPARAM (PARAM_MAX_INLINE_RECURSIVE_DEPTH_AUTO,
          "max-inline-recursive-depth-auto",
          "The maximum depth of recursive inlining for non-inline functions",
          8, 0, 0)

and for illustration, here's memory growth with changing this parameter:

1    3.2 MiB
2    3.2 MiB
3    5.5 MiB
4    killed after using 495 MiB

we simply create a lot of temporares and calls and basic blocks.  Which some
place of gcc doesn't very much like (t24.fixupcfg dump):

;; Function void A::f(A::X&) (_ZN1A1fERNS_1XE)
