I am puzzled. Is it maybe the case that this systems offers mostly static libraries instead of shared libraries? This would increase the size of the executable.
You don't perchance uses any options such as "-flto"?

Signed PGP part Hello all,
I am trying to test building the ET on Fedora core and find that the linking stage uses much more (1.3GB, the executable is 280M) memory than on the other Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Debian) that I tried.
I already tried the -no-keep-memory option which does not help.
Does anyone have experience with how to make the linker use less memory?
I follow the steps in https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Simplified_Tutorial_for_New_Users (which is what I am updating), with the exception of updating the mpich paths to no longer use mpich2 but instead mpich.
Yours, Roland
