In case someone is interested, I created /var/tmp/portage |
| 12 |
as 4GB-big tmpfs, and then recompilled @system. I checked |
| 13 |
how much /var/tmp/portage space is needed for each pachage: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
gcc-4.7.3-r1: ~2.4 GB |
| 16 |
glibc-2.17: ~490 MB |
| 17 |
perl-5.6.13: ~250 MB |
| 18 |
binutils-2.23.2: ~300 MB |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
And a few from my @world: |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
php-5.5.7: ~540 MB |
| 23 |
mysql-5.1.70: ~420 MB |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Packages not listed needed less than 200MB and/or were |
| 26 |
compiled fast and not recorded by my script (it checked |
| 27 |
/var/tmp/portage every 5 seconds). |
