Comment (by maeder at tzi.de):

 I can compile my 679 modules with optimization within 3 hours by
 restarting the compilation three times. ghc "only" needs around 600 MB
 then. However, unused memory should be swapped out.

 However, my last jobs never really hung. Maybe all my previous
 oberservations apply to a compiler version without threaded RTS, where
 ghc-6.6 simply slept without noticable reason (and woke up later or not at
 all).
