See here https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...zed-dex-error-need-help-pls.10428/#post-58036

By the way: If you use the search function with "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC overhead limit exceeded" you'll find a lot of threads with solutions

The title is irritating:

Parsing code. (0.07s)
Compiling code. (0.21s)
Compiling layouts code. (0.15s)
Generating R file. (1.15s)
Compiling generated Java code. (7.32s)

It's just 9 seconds....

The compiler is not slower in v5.8. My guess is that you added a library that depends on google play services which is a large library.

Increase the MaxRamForDex as @KMatle wrote. You can also exclude classes not required. https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/pages/results/?query=excludeclasses
