GitLab

The TS-GitLab will have to shut down towards the end of the year — please think about migrating your projects to GitLab.com or GitHub.
(This is still a very early message, meant to keep you informed. There will be more urgent ones in the future.)

Make compilation procedure more efficient

Description

The current compilation procedure is focused on not exceeding 2 GB of RAM for sequential make runs. As indicated in !63 (merged), compiling single instantiations of the Simulation template can be inefficient, both in terms of memory and CPU usage.

The new restrictive limit is the default GitLab runner, which is limited to 3 GB.

Proposal

Use less object files:

  1. Move multiple YASPGrid instantiations into one object file
  2. (optional) Move more UGGrid instantiations into single object files

How to test the implementation?

Pipeline passes (faster than now)
