Thanks Eike, your explanation makes sense.

I will try to confirm this by running the compilation in a machine with 4GB
RAM.
By the way, this seems to me like another not-so-well-documented
requirement.

It also seems to me a bit like bloatware, however I am not familiar with
compiling
programs, maybe this is something normal. I also wonder how did they
compile LO
10 years ago, when a laptop with 4GB RAM was not so common.
Anyway, I hope that things will improve and become more efficient in the
future.

Best,
Dashamir
