When running the derivation checker on all packages for recent guix
revisions, it dones't seem to complete. Instead, you get an error which
I think comes from the garbage collection implementation that Guile
uses:
→ guix lint --checkers=derivation
Too many heap sections: Increase MAXHINCR or MAX_HEAP_SECTS
Aborted
I noticed this on data.guix.gnu.org, as it effectively does something
similar when trying to record the lint warnings for a revision.
Maybe there's enough derivations now that the process of computing them
all is too much for Guile? Or maybe it's something in the graph that's
forming a loop?

I've got a bit more information now, I'm guessing the changes in [1]
just tipped the balance as that's when the data service instances
started not being able to process revisions.

I think I've managed to work around this now in the data service [2],
but the problem still remains when running the linter through the
script.
