[llvm-dev] debug build busts memory

[Bagel via llvm-dev]

The linking state of a Debug build seems to require a humongous amount of 
memory.  My poor little linux machine with 16G of ram swaps its brains out. 
Waiting for it to finish (if it ever does) is like the old days when you 
submitted your deck of cards and waited until the next day to see the results.

To debug a new backend, is there a way to just get the debug info for the 
Target/Foo directory?

Is there a way to just build "llc"?

Any ideas to speed things up?

Thanks, brian
