Re: RISC-V 32-bit debug builds reaching breaking point: too many symbols

Hi Marco,

Thanks for the quick reply — and no worries about the dupe!

Got it. That makes sense. I was wondering if splitting earlier would help reduce linker overhead, but I see now that the .dwo files (or .dwp) would likely still carry a heavy load and relocations would remain a bottleneck.

Interesting to hear that the same behavior persists with LLVM — I guess that confirms it's more of a fundamental tooling limit than a front-end quirk.

Appreciate your input! If I end up testing with smaller compilation units or tweaking DWARF emission flags, I’ll report back.

Best regards,
