My desktop at work has 256MB RAM and I typically have 200-400MB of a 512MB swap partition used during the day. (Thanks gkrellm!) The computer is an old GX200 series dell workstation with one ECC RAMBUS RIMM installed. Due to the price of RAMBUS memory and the age of my workstation, swap space is all I'm gonna get from my bosses until I get a new workstation. This just feels like the perfect argument for swap space.
I have a dual p-III 1000Mhz system. I have a 7200RPM Seagate ultra2 18.1GB with 2MB cache and one 7200RPM Maxtor 40GB ata66 with 2MB cache. compiling a large project on the IDE takes 4 or 5 minutes total. Compiling the same project on the scsi drive takes 2 minutes.
That was all I needed to see to convince me that scsi was good for gcc.

It sounds like you may be dealing with hardware failure. I get denied outright with "No manual entry for woman".
