Ha, you're right: [Wed Oct 20 12:46:30 2021] Out of memory: Killed process 31394 (cc1plus) total-vm:1523016kB, anon-rss:1436000kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB, UID:999 pgtables:2908kB oom_score_adj:0 [Wed Oct 20 12:47:09 2021] Out of memory: Killed process 31401 (cc1plus) total-vm:1673940kB, anon-rss:1600700kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB, UID:999 pgtables:3240kB oom_score_adj:0 [Wed Oct 20 12:47:27 2021] Out of memory: Killed process 31413 (cc1plus) total-vm:1803984kB, anon-rss:1700556kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB, UID:999 pgtables:3448kB oom_score_adj:0 which, in turn, surprises me, since I have 32GB of RAM. (And I thought already I bought too much, ugh :) BTW jpoiret advised me to use swap [1]. IMO swap should be present in the default OS configuration, since recompilation happens by default, like 2 or 3 times out of 5 times I do `guix upgrade`. Anyway thanks for the bug analysis. Kind regards Bost [1] https://logs.guix.gnu.org/guix/2021-10-20.log#133303 Le mer. 20 oct. 2021 à 15:48, Tobias Geerinckx-Rice a écrit : > Rostislav, > > Rostislav Svoboda 写道: > > Ehm, sorry.
