mysql Workbench cannot install

[Steve Morrisby]

I have a Linux Slackware 15 laptop.
I'm trying to install mysql-workbench
During the install process the laptop slows right down and the install eventually fails with the following error:

[ 98%] Building CXX object protobuf-3.19.6/cmake/CMakeFiles/libprotobuf.dir/__/src/google/protobuf/compiler/subprocess.cc.o
[ 98%] Building CXX object protobuf-3.19.6/cmake/CMakeFiles/libprotobuf.dir/__/src/google/protobuf/compiler/zip-writer.cc.o
c++: fatal error: Killed signal terminated program cc1plus
compilation terminated

The above was using a binaries from a Slackware repository.

I also used the files from the MYSQL site
which installed OK but returned the following error when I tried to run it:

I'm at a bit of a loss
