A project build on Raspbian.

@SGaist Could be true. I just tested my app. With 4 threads, make uses about 10% of total memory. But my app needs more than that.

SGaist

@JoeCFD we don't know what the OP is trying to build so it could be completely at odds with regard to your own reference.

JoeCFD

@SGaist True. I suspect Qt Creator may have some sort of deadlock issue in update. Often I feel like it is slow with Qt Creator to build. Therefore, I run make from command line almost all the time.

How do I build from a command line?

@jenya7

Open a terminal
Create a build folder
Change into build folder
Call: qmake PATH_TO_PROJECT_FOLDER
Call: make

mkdir build
cd build
qmake PATH_TO_YOUR_PROJECT_FOLDER
make

This is nonsense - there is no difference if you call make or whatever from the command line or from QtCreator.

With 4 threads, make uses about 10% of total memory. But my app needs more than that.

And how do you know the RAM size of the OP? How do you know what headers and libraries are used?

Stop spreading fud!

@jsulm
I did
• $ cd my/dir/
• $ qmake -project
• $ qmake
• $ make
It basted my pro file. Removed lines
QT += core gui network xml bluetooth
greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets
and I got a lot of errors.

May be the GUI itself loads some extra?

This is not what I suggested, please reread...

What extra?
QtCreator does the same thing I described before: it calls qmake and then make.
You can even see it in QtCreator...

well...the command line works. seems faster, but don't relay on my subjective analysis. I'll see if it helps.
