We have the same amount of RAM, but building dev-lang/R doesn't come |
| 13 |
close to using it all on my machine, even with MAKEOPTS="-j4"... |

That will work around the issue, and you may have to use that trick for |
| 26 |
some other packages like firefox/LLVM with "only" 6GB of RAM. But it |
| 27 |
doesn't explain why I can build dev-lang/R and you can't. |

What USE flags does "emerge -pv1 dev-lang/R" show? Are you willing to |
| 30 |
watch "htop" in another window while the dev-lang/R build fails to see |
| 31 |
how much memory is free? |
