Google Chromium takes up to 10 gigs to build from source?

So I was browsing the AUR and saw in the package build for chromium-browser-svn that the build can take up to 5gigs to build. Well after surfing the web the official chromium wiki states that it can take up to 10gigs.
This seems crazy to me, though I don't have a lot of programming knowledge.
So my question is, does anyone here know why a program like this, that doesn't have a very large binary, would take so much disk space to build?

Wow, I didn't realize that the source was 900mb. But still, 10gb is a whole order of magnitude greater than the source. I don't know, maybe I just don't know enough, or anything for that mater, about how software compilation happens, but this still seems quite ludicrous to me.
So is there a simple answer to this or is it quite complicated?
Thanks for any helpful information.

  • [SOLVED] No sound through usb soundcard in Google Chromium

    Hi there,
    Before switching to Arch I had used my external usb soundcard in Ubuntu and Kubuntu which worked almost flawlessly except for no sound through Google Chromium in Kubuntu. I thought this may have been isolated when switching KDE on Arch but I'm stilling having the same problem. All audio works through the external soundcard except for Chromium.
    Does anyone know how I can change sound preferences in Chromium or other way to solve this problem?
    Thanks,

    Not sure exactly what I did but I fiddled with the default soundcard configuration and now it works.

    What about the fontbook not being able to resolve duplicates?
    Try deleting the 'com.apple.FontBook.plist' file.
    HD/Users/yourhome/Library/Preferences/ com.apple.FontBook.plist
    any other fnts that can commonly cause problems besides the few that are mentioned all the time?
    These two can cause problems 'Times Phonetic' -- 'Rougue Stencil-Type' but probably checked for them.

  • For existing data in BI, client need to take a call to park the same from s

    hi,
    friends,
    For existing data in BI, client need to take a call to park the same from safety point view by copying the existing ODS  
    is it possible?if it is possible give me details.
    thanks&regurds
    sivaji

    hi,
    well when you copy an ODS only the structure is copied. to load the data you might need to create transformation and DTp to load data in the new ODS.
    You need to load data manually. Copying the ODS will only copy the structure.

  • How do I take ownership of a hard drive build in windows but installed as an additional disk in my new Mac Pro?

    How do I take ownership of a hard drive build in windows but installed as an additional disk in my new Mac Pro?
    I bought a Mac and have various HDDs, some Portable some SATA, I can right to them and dont seem to be able to take ownership of them, is this to do with the format or Security seting I can't find?
    Any help would be great; thanks.

  • HT5361 Why is that when I am composing a new message do I end up with multiple versions of my message I am composing up in my Google Trash mailbox?  How can I stop this from happening?

    Why is that when I am composing a new message do I end up with multiple versions of my message I am composing up in my Google Trash mailbox?  How can I stop this from happening?

    It was very hard to see what the box says because the message displays for less than one second. However, I was able to record it with my iphone and pause it until I got a shot of the message. The box says the following:
    "Do you want the application “java” to accept incoming network connections?
    Clicking deny may limit the application’s behavior. This setting can be changed in the Firewall pane of Security preferences."
    I did make some changes. I will see if it works.
    Thank you!!!

    sounds more like Bluetooth rather than moue, but w/o knowing w/o posting mac model type/year we... will... not... know... what you have
    All computers are personal computers, a PC though is also "non-Apple" in common usage.
    Mac also is platform and OS.
    Very confused reading what you are trying to tell us.

  • DataSource extraction very slow ( from Source System to PSA it takes 23 hrs

    Friends,
    We have enhanced the datasource 0CRM_SALES_ORDER_I with the user exit....after the enhancement i.e (adding the new fields and wrote some coding to enhance ...) the data extraction takes place for around 23 hours. there is approximately 2,50,000 records.
    Can you please suggest any steps to tune up the performance of the datasource.
    NOTE: Data Extraction from source system to PSA alone takes 23 hrs.once the data is arrived in PSA then the loading of data to cube is fast.
    PLZ help me to solve this issue.

  • How long does it take for an iphone 5s to go from preparing to ship to shipped?

    How long does it take for an iphone 5s to go from preparing to ship to shipped. I ordered my iphone on sept 20 6:00 pm and right next to the "preparing to ship" it still says 7-10 days and apple already took the money out of my account?

    Apple.com has notoriously given very accurate assessments of their ship dates.  Keep checking back there for updates.  The place to look is in the Store ... find the "Account" button near the upper right.

    Joey,
    Try removing the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. To find that Library folder, use Finder>Go Menu>Depress the "Option" key>Library. Drag the .plist file to your desktop.
    Next, go to your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars Folder and remove any files with "Cache" as a part of the file name. Use the same method as described above to get to the correct Library Folder.
    Restart using a Safe Boot, and after the Safe Boot is complete startup normally and test Calendar for functionality.

  • I transferred about 400 gigs of data from my MacBook Pro to my new iMac using Migration Assistant, but it doesn't show on Finder. How can I locate my data?

    I transferred about 400 gigs of data from my MacBook Pro to my new iMac using Migration Assistant, but can't find any of my data on Finder. I'm thinking that the data got transferred but not cataloged. Finder shows about 400 gigs of my hard drive being used, but the files it shows don't come anywhere close to 400 gigs. How can I find out what is really on the hard drive and how can I access my MacBook files I transferred?

    I suggest that you start over, boot into Internet recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, erase and reformat the HD with one partition and GUID option, quit Disk Utility, restore the OS, and on first boot, use the Setup Assistant to migrate from the MacBook, following the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide. If that doesn't solve your problem, contact Apple's Support. If they recommend the same steps, I'd opt to return the machine and get another (you can do that the first 14 days you own it, no questions asked).
