Juanito:
Does a swap partition or swap file help?

The last time I tried, I’m pretty sure it was an illegal instruction that stopped things.

polikuo:
I tried compiling on RPI4-4G instead of RPI4-8G to encourage swapping.
The process was killed when the swap usage was somewhere around 3G

On idle

--- Code: ---tc@pi4-1:~$ free -m
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:           3792          54        3697          11          41        3685
Swap:         40173           0       40173
--- End code ---

Right before the process was killed

--- Code: ---top - 17:28:24 up 19 min,  3 users,  load average: 1.83, 1.21, 0.60

Paul_123:
That’s the same wall I ran into a few years back.  I could not find any useful help with 32bit systems.

Would the Debian/RaspiOS package build scripts provide any useful help?

Juanito:
My last attempt fails with this:
--- Code: ---In file included from /mnt/sda8/usr/src/firefox-128.2.0/firefox-build-dir/dist/stl_wrappers/new:62:

Hi polikuo

--- Quote from: polikuo on January 08, 2025, 10:59:29 PM ---I'm trying to compile firefox for armhf.
I'm having memory problem even though I'm using 64-bit kernel.

--- Code: ---tc@pi4-1:/mnt/mmcblk0p5/compile/firefox-128.6.0$ getBuild
armhf
tc@pi4-1:/mnt/mmcblk0p5/compile/firefox-128.6.0$ uname -m
aarch64
--- End code ---

I've tried limiting the job count to 1, but I'm still out of memory.
on idle:

--- Code: ---tc@pi4-1:/mnt/mmcblk0p5/compile/firefox-128.6.0$ free -m
               total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available

You're using a 64bit kernel, but a 32 bit toolchain. Right?

So that means the 64 bit kernel can allocate all available
RAM to various running apps.

But any 32 bit app needing more than 3.5 - 4 Gig of RAM
will still run out of memory because it can't address it.
