Re: [Xen-API] Compiling xen-api on Debian Wheezy AMD64

[Jonathan Ludlam <Jonathan.Ludlam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm still suspicious that it's using the byte code compilers. I've just tried 
here and when I compile datamodel.ml with ocamlopt.opt (native compiler) it's 
ok, and when I use ocamlopt (bytecode) I, too, get stack overflow.

Try verifying with ps to see which compiler it's using?
