There's a few possible solutions: * Enable WITH_CYCLES_NATIVE_ONLY and disable WITH_LIBMV_SCHUR_SPECIALIZATIONS * If it's running out of memory building a particular module, you can disable that module in CMake (e.g. WITH_MOD_FLUID, ...). It would be interesting to know which one. * As a last resort, you can build with fewer threads.
