@@ -1,11 +1,19 @@ -*- text -*- +* A new linker command line switch has been added which allows the hash table + size to be set to a suitable prime value near to its argument. This switch + is --hash-size=<NUMBER>. Also if the switch --reduce-memory-overheads is + used, and --hash-size has not been used, then the default value will be set + to 1021. + * Linker map files are now generated with an O(N) algorithm for finding symbols that are defined in each section. This uses about 40% more memory for symbols than the old O(N^2) algorithm. You can use the new --reduce-memory-overheads option to select the old algorithm; this option might also be used in the future to select similar tradeoffs. +Changes in 2.15: + * New PE --large-address-aware option to indicate executables support virtual addresses greater than 2 gigabytes. |
