Then suddenly it springs into life and completes the install. </p> <p> I notice that, once it recovers, install says: </p> <p> ...patience... ...found 19901 targets... </p> <p> whereas stage, which doesn't hang, says: </p> <p> ...patience... ...found 1139 targets... </p> <p> I'm not sure what accounts for the difference. </p> </description> <category>Ticket</category> </item> <item> <dc:creator>Steven Watanabe</dc:creator> <pubDate>Sat, 14 Mar 2015 02:49:59 GMT</pubDate> <title/> <link>https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6509#comment:3 </link> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6509#comment:3</guid> <description> <p> I can't replicate this. It's possible that bjam is exhausting physical memory. bjam uses a lot of memory, although it's much better than it used to be. If it starts hitting swap it will be quite slow. </p> </description> <category>Ticket</category> </item> <item> <dc:creator>Steven Watanabe</dc:creator> <pubDate>Tue, 23 Jan 2018 02:27:33 GMT</pubDate> <title>status changed; resolution set https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6509#comment:4 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6509#comment:4 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">new</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">closed</span> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">worksforme</span> </li> </ul> Ticket
