-> I am running DJGPP under windows 95 on my Pentium 133 with 40 megs of
-> RAM.  I know that GCC is not loaded into memory automatically like
-> other compilers, but I would like to know if there is a way to store
-> it in memory so it will compile faster, please let me know if this is
-> in the FAQ, or atleast a way to do it.  Many thanks
I'm running DJGPP with 16 mb of RAM...
I gave smartdrive 4 mb
and set up a 4 mb ram disk, and pointed the tmpdir to it.
It compiles a hello world program in like 3-5 seconds with
almost no hard disk interaction... it's cool :>
