[Bf-committers] Blender building software

[Sergey Sharybin]

The thing is, to use Bullet3 CUDA you don't need to enable CUDA in Cycles
(and compiling Cycles CUDA kernel takes huge amount of memory).

Also, i bet Bullet3 would still work on CPU even with CUDA disabled. So i
would try building Blender with Bullet3 but without CUDA, that would be
much easier first step.
