Hi,
Does anybody know how much RAM is required to build Sage these days.
With MAKE not set, typing "make" with sage-6.2.rc2 on a VM with 4GB
RAM results in failure (see below). Of course, I'm not using swap,
and of course with swap you can do anything if you're willing to wait.
That said, it would be very useful to have some sort of statement
about required RAM, like we now have for disk space: "Make sure you
have the dependencies and 5 GB of free disk space."
According to http://wiki.sagemath.org/SupportedPlatforms#Sage_6.1.1,
2GB should be enough to build Sage. But it could indeed be that you need
to overcommit more than that, so you need either swap or enable
overcommitting (assuming this is Linux: what does "sysctl
vm.overcommit_memory" say when run as root?)
