I have an old Acer laptop with a Core 2 Duo P7550 @2.26GHz CPU and only 4G RAM. It will compile everything, even rust and qtwebengine, although it may take more than a day to achieve this.

Or, use some blocks/books to suspend it off the desk. A couple of inches may be enough. Alternatively, you can buy a cooling pad. Some come with USB powered fans too, which help drop the CPU temperature by another couple of degrees. --nextPart3352758.QJadu78ljV Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
