Hello,
Do why CLion needs 1.2 GB to compile a very small library?

Hi!
Sorry for the inconvenience! CLion indexes system headers, so it is the reason. Also, since is it a Java app, it doesn't eagerly return used memory back to OS. We understand that usage this high is a problem and we're working on decreasing memory consumption, but unfortunately, for now, your number is not unexpected.
Thanks for replying Anna. Anyway, CLion is my favorite tool for C programming, and I'm going to indicate it to the company I'm working for. (Could you fix my typo in the title? I meant: "Why do CLion needs 1.2 GB of RAM?"). Thank you! :-)
