   I wonder more about why nobody cares about compilation memory   
   requirements.  For time, you can always wait, but if you don't have   
   enough memory you are stuck.  (Or virtual address space in the case of   
   virtual memory.)   
      
   The art of compiling large programs on small machines seems to be   
   completely lost.

   on mainframe IBM 360 MVS because it doesn't fit. -John]
