#42320 closed defect (wontfix)

py-bottleneck @0.8.0 unbuildable on small machines

Reported by: josephsacco Owned by: stromnov (Andrey Stromnov)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.2.1
Keywords: Cc: cooljeanius (Eric Gallager)
Port: py-bottleneck

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

GCC runs out of memory while building py-bottleneck-0.8.0 on a small machine with limited RAM [old G4 PowerMac]. The problem is the two generated C files are huge: 

     func.c      17MB
     move.c      12MB

Splitting each of these up into smaller files might solve the problem. I do not know enough about Cython to try this myself so I contacted Keith Goodman, asking about the feasibility of doing this.

Keith responded [29-Jan-2014]:

"Yeah, that must be painful on smaller machines. I'm sure things could be broken down into smaller chunks. But right now I'm just doing minimal maintenance on bottleneck."

Owner: changed from macports-tickets@… to stromnov@…
Port: py-bottleneck added; py-bottleneck-0.8.0 removed
Summary: py-bottleneck-0.8.0 unbuiltable on small machines → py-bottleneck @0.8.0 unbuildable on small machines

This does not sound like a MacPorts-specific problem. It would be up to the developer of this software to correct this problem.
