Hello I just obtained a large 103MB static executable file from Qt Compiler. It run on linux2.6.32 of mini2440 with 64MB SRAM & 256MB NAND. I worry about its stability. I wish, the linux OS does not load large parts of the executable file to SRAM. I will be appreciated with your comments & suggestions in this regard. (I know how to disable unused modules in configuring Qt compiler) Regards

Files are mapped into the address space of a process. And only swapped in on demand (and discarded if the system is under low RAM pressure). I guess most of this 103 MiB large binary does not contain required data at runtime (maybe debug info?). I see stability issues only for changed data in RAM ("dirty pages"). Not for read only data.
