Any other suggestions?
Would it be viable to modify the build system such that test binaries which ran successfully get stripped after they ran? Having the then unneeded debug symbols removed would help a lot.
I just modified it so that by default, they're deleted after they run successfully. This only deletes top-level targets (executables most of the time, shared objects for Python tests), so object files sit around sucking up disk space. You can turn this behavior off by adding --preserve-test-targets to the bjam command-line. I did this after running out of disk myself ;-) -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
