How much memory/RAM do you have in your system? I would not be surprised if you needed 10GB to link a 2GB library. If you don't have that much, the operating system will start to swap out data and then it can take forever.
Maybe the issue is somehow related to these reports:

Hard to tell whether these are related.
I think i'll wait for the patch allowing to build deal.II as a dynamic library. I usually develop in Ubuntu but i also need my program to run on Windows. For now, compiling only in Release mode is good enough.
OK, good to know that you have an alternative way to work.
Best
