Hi:

While compiling a large project with gcc,
I notice that even though I have almost 1GB
of free memory, during the link phase, 
gcc uses ~300MB of physical mem and ~200MB
of virtual. Any ideas on why it is using
virtual memory when there is a load of physical
left?  

Any and all ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sean
