Make file build in gcc literally takes forever to link

[Ozil 11]

I'm using sdk 14.2 and I have nrf52832 board. Now when I go to armgcc folder in sdk of any example (I'm using the blinky example )  and open my command prompt and try to build the file using "make" command , it builds fine till compiling the sources files but then gets stuck in " Linking target : _build/nrf52832_xxaa.out " 

Stuck as in literally takes forever to link it . I waited one hour but it still doesn't do anything . I'll attach a photo of cmd

I had to force shutdown my laptop because it hangs up my whole system .

Check your laptop. This sounds a lot like a hardware problem with the laptop CPU, RAM or disk.

I have a core i7 with with 6GB ram. I'm able to build SDK 11 make files. What is the idea configuration for a computer then ?

One that is not broken or damaged. Did you try to enable "-flto" optimization?

[Ozil 11]

No I'm not familiar with make files. Should i add that part with my make command ?

like "make -flto"

I'm using GNU Make 3.81

Are you experiencing this with the unmodified blinky example? Are you seeing this issue with all examples in the SDK, or only this one? Which ARMGCC version are you using?
