Subject: [boost] [log] MSVC 9 build hangs

Hi,

Many test results for Boost.Log on teeks99-03b-win2008-64on64 [1] show that
the build aborts due to timeout. From the test setup description (2 GiB of
RAM, 2 CPUs, 4 build jobs) it seems that the problem could be in the
insufficient system resources. 4 jobs building Boost.Log can easily exceed 2
gigs of RAM, especially considering some of the memory is reserved by OS and
other programs. If there isn't any swap, the build may be just aborting, and
if there is, it's probably performing dead slow. And 2 cores might also be too
limiting.

Could the tester take a look what is happening on that setup? If it's not a
resource problem, then I would appreciate any information on the problem.
