I've got 256MB of RAM plus 1GB of swap space. I'm sort of
torturing the poor machine -- in addition to the OOo build, I'm
emerging some other miscellaneous stuff (sdl-mixer at the
moment).
With the two emerge jobs running, there is 32MB of swap is
in-use (unchanged for several minutes). That's not bad
considering that the OOo build's cc1plus process RSS climbs up
to 100+ MB at times.
