Mac Linker running out of memory?

[John Abd-El-Malek]

After syncing, I'm unable to build on Mac.  I keep getting linker errors.  I have 6GB of RAM.  Is that not enough anymore?

I think that happened to me on 10.5.  Apparently it works on 10.6.  I have vague recollections of someone saying this is because the 10.5 ld is 32-bit, but the 10.6 one is 64-bit.  You can build in release mode and still not OOM.  Otherwise, you need to upgrade to 10.6.

Thanks for the info!

You may also be able to get it working on 10.5 using these steps:

Exactly.

(I’m only responding because Will said “I think” and that he’s only
got “vague recollections,” but what he thinks is correct, and his
recollections are spot-on.)

I'm also splitting webcore_remaining on my spare time. This morning webkit roll should pull yet another split to help with this situation.

btw, those instructions worked, but as Nico helped track down, /usr/bin/ld needs to be replaced as well
