[cfe-dev] [clang] How can I make Linking clang faster?

[James Molloy]

Hi Liu,

If you use Gold as your linker, the link time memory usage is severely reduced.

I've also found CTRL-C'ing the build close to the link step and rebuilding with -j1 to help too, so linking isn't done in parallel.

Cheers,

James

Hi all

When I build llvm with clang, the linking is so slow and ld have a
high memory using, what can I do to solve this problem?
The linking age make my compute very slow for a long time, because
disk is reading/writing by ld.
