Hello,
This is correct – Yocto approach requires much resources : DRAM memory
and disk space. From section 3 (Host Setup) in “Freescale_Yocto_Project_User's_Guide.pdf”
of the recent FSL / NXP Linux BSP :
“An important consideration is the hard disk space required in the host machine. For example,
when building on a machine running Ubuntu, the minimum hard disk space required is about 50 GB
for the X11 backend. It is recommended that at least 120 GB is provided, which is enough to compile
all backends together.”
My experience : It was needed to use 64-bit Linux host (Debian 8.2 in my case) with 6GB of DRAM
and 150 GB disk space to build QT5.
Have a great day,
Yuri
