Oh, you mean if compiling panda directly on the Tinkerboard. I thought you meant a blank panda program running on tinkerboard would use 3gb of ram.
Is this guide still relevant? will it work on the rpi4?
I recently built Panda3d 1.11 on a Raspberry Pi 3B+, has to set GPU mem down to 16 megs and increase the swap size… I wouldn’t recommend doing that, took well over 20 hours to compile
Here’s a link to the .deb: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5a399e33jkap6fj/panda3d1.11_1.11.0_armhf.deb
yeah… I also spent around that amount of time to compile on the 3B+… You might get better results with the rpi4 together with some really fast storage (e.g. USB3 attached) and if you’ve gotten the 4 GB version, you might even get away w/o creating/touching a swap file…
I nearly started to setup distcc on multiple raspbies to see how much faster I could get it to compile…
