Cool, build fails!

Build fails now! Will wait with accepting your Blender request until this is fixed in order to avoid multiple builds..

Hm, the package assembles 2 .s files which each has ~1GB. There's CPU and memory usage graph: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/marxin/223890df4d8d8e490b6b2918b77dacad/raw/8959f697d830026961ed0dbdaa29c105b0f3e1ca/embree.svg

You hit: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26381

which will be fixed in next binutils release.

With the fixed GAS we can get to: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/marxin/223890df4d8d8e490b6b2918b77dacad/raw/23578e9c98b015ce77b39e282404d57053990e78/embree-fixed-gas.svg

Interesting. Yes, I know, that embree is a somewhat pathological case.

But this version wasn't buildable at all.

I don't see much improvement in terms of memory usage, though. gas seems to exceed 12 GB now.

Yes, memory usage is quite similar, but it's much more faster.
