Re: FYI: what it takes for RAM+swap to build devel/llvm40 with 4 processors or cores and WITH__DEBUG= (powerpc64 example)

This raises the question, how much diskspace is required or advised for a full FreeBSD installation if both the base system and ports are built from source?

Some messages in this thread have raised the possibility of needing 49 to over 100 GB, which is much more than I have allotted.

Also, what about space for a local repository when using synth for ports?

I could run out of space on some of my partitions but could make a much bigger separate partition if necessary, 500 GB or more.

If this question diverges from the proper thread topic, feel free to change the subject line and respond to freebsd-ports if that is more appropriate, so I won't be accused of hijacking this thread.
