My rule of thumb: 2 GB of RAM per logical processor to do a compilation. So 16 GB of RAM is sufficient for a 4-core system (8 CPUs), but not for 6-core (12 CPUs). But this doesn't apply to qtwebengine. That thing has a few VERY big files that are concatenation of a lot of small ones and take multiple GB of RAM to compile. If you don't need qtwebengine, don't download it and don't build it. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel DPG Cloud Engineering _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/interest
