In other words: they force you to use it? :)Quote:

My job requirements make me use Qt 4.1 when there is 4.3, SCons 0.96 (Yuck!) MSVS 2003 etc. etc.
No. I just look at the resulting executable sizes. Duh! ;)Quote:

Hehe, I noticed that SCons 0.98 was released on 31 March.Quote:

Better than nothing, at least. Unlike someone else's job who still uses the old MSVC6 compiler :pQuote:

With 512MB of RAM and built-in graphics, you may not have enough memory to compile large projects. gcc and g++ are pretty memory hungry at times.
If anything else, a bit more memory will allow the system to cache more of the include files and such.

thanks. actually maybe it depends on system load.
this program compiled in 2 seconds only:
Code:#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout << "Hello G++!\n";
return 0;
}
I have 512MB of RAM and I'm no where close to experience manav's problems and never was. Granted, if all of those MBs are being used, I probably would. So maybe that's it. Too many things opened?Quote:

Manav: maybe theres somethin eating up all your resources, either that or you have a very old pc.
My laptop specs are:
512mb ram.
Celeron underclocked @ 630mhz
280mhz bus.
No GPU: leeches off ram instead.
OS: Xubuntu
But g++ will still compile pretty much any small project for me in less time than is noticable.
512 MB is not plenty :p
It's pretty poor these days. You can't have much running with 512 MB and expect a fast system...
Don't Insult my new laptop Elysia :devil:
On the plus side its only about 9" big and has a solid state HD that boots into xfce in around 30 seconds.
Tbh I find 512mb ram more than enough for most of the things I do with a computer. I can still run FF with a load of tabs open, pidgin, the terminal, and gedit all at once with no paging. What more should I need?
LOL. We had this discussion before Elysia. Let it go. I think you were proved wrong back then. It's a matter of what you do with your computer. 512MB Ram can be plenty, yes. It IS plenty on my case. I honestly don't feel at all the need to put in some more.
