Spook, you SAID "they put all the needs on your processor" . What ARE you thinking?? It puts needs on the L3 or L2 memory (I don't think so Cheesy ) ?? Or ARE you thinking about "It using processor a lot" ? When i compile A map i have 100% processor usage (Intel Core 2 Duo 5200 at 2.50 Ghz). But when i compile at high quality (DO you compile map on same ??) processor usage is ALSO on 100% and that'S noT bad, but ram usage is going up: 512Mb .... 1GB .... 2GB ,and error (with progress on 3-4 ) because i have 2GB of ram, and THE compiler can't alloc any more! But WHY DOES it alloc 2GB of ram!?! Spook you SAID "Compilers aren't very RAM heavy." So what DO you say now (TELL me how much of ram you have, i think 4GB )?? Oh, and TELL me what map you ARE compilING?
EDIT: Repaired some mistakes .... (Thanks S8NSSON)
