[pypy-dev] Advice on Compiling Pypy-c for debugging (Stackless support)

[Andrew Francis]

Hi:

I finally got my hands on a machine big enough to compile pypy-c. I want to try pypy-c with the greenlet package. As I mentioned in previous posts, I want to see how the greenlet package blows up pypy-c and hope that it is a case of simply altering greenlets enough so it will work. 

I did a test run with -Ojit. It still took about 90 minutes to compile on a Mac with 4G of ram. That said, what would be the right switches to create a version can be placed in a debugger? Where does the C code go - or would this code even be useful. Any suggestions to speed up the process.

Cheers,
Andrew
