I'm on 16GB as well, with a 9GB /var/tmp/portage tmpfs, and all of the |
| 15 |
above build fine. No need to build them on disk. |

Note that tmpfs does not consume any memory if there's no files in it! |

So you can make your tmpfs larger. Here, 9GB is enough to build the |
| 19 |
above. However, that's of course for when not using --jobs for emering. |
