C++ compilers are memory-hungry. It is recommended to have at least 1 GB of memory available when compiling MultiChain. With 512MB of memory or less compilation will take much longer due to swap thrashing.
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool autotools-dev automake pkg-config libssl-dev libevent-dev bsdmainutils sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev sudo apt-get install git sudo apt-get install software-properties-common sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install libdb4.8-dev libdb4.8++-dev
./autogen.sh ./configure make
This will build multichaind, multichain-cli and multitchain-util in ./src
The release is built with GCC and then "strip multichaind" to strip the debug symbols, which reduces the executable size by about 90%.
