Re: [Dev-C++] Compiler's Use of Memory

If that was addressed to me here's the text of my earlier reply:

"I have 64 Meg of RAM in the system and in the neighborhood of 15 to 20
free when I start to compile the program.  During compilation free
memory never drops below 10 Meg."

I'd like to turn off the debugging code added by the compiler but
program that I'm working on desperately needs it.  Four or five minutes
per compile is a bit constraining.  Does anyone know if I would benefit
by switching to the Cygwin compiler?  Perhaps I should implement handle
classes (or the "Cheshire cat") that I read about today in chapter 5 of
Eckel's Thinking in C++.
