Take a look on "pygccxml.parser.project_reader.create_cached_source_fc(header,
cached_source_file)" function (
http://language-binding.net/pygccxml/apidocs/parser.html )

It will allow you to save gccxml compilation time.

If you can send me( privatly ) gccxml generated file, I can try to
improve py++/pygccxml performance.

pygccxml is able to merge results from different gccxml invocation,
but from my experience it will take more time and memory.

Did you include all your projects in that file or a single one? Ogre
3D engine is pretty big project, but even it doesn't consumes so much
memory.
