It compiles with g++ and as at about 0.5GB per thread, which is OK. In the end it does ld taking 4GB and it tries to do 4 in parallel. And then swapping becomes so heavy the desktop becomes unresponsive. Like I mentioned before ssh from another machine allows me to STOP one of them, allowing the remaining to complete. And then CONT the last one. I worked around it now, by creating a bbappend for nodejs with only PARALLEL_MAKE = "-j 2" In the longer run, changes to how bitbake schedules work may be needed.http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/commit/?h=rpurdie/wipqueue4&id=d66a327fb6189db5de8bc489859235dcba306237
