It is hard to build the project on machines with 16 GB RAM because of high memory consumption.
KTOR-7825 Reduce Gradle memory consumption
Solution
Xmx
for Kotlin Daemon (including the one used by Gradle to compile Kotlin DSL scripts)Xmx
for Gradle DaemonautoshutdownIdleSeconds
from 2 hours to 30 minutes to mitigate buildSrc and buildSrc-like included builds spin up Kotlin daemon that for the most users used only once gradle/gradle#29331It would be great to specify
-XX:MaxMetaspaceSize
to prevent Gradle from being silently killed by OS due to unlimited metaspace consumption (see gradle/gradle#19750) and make memory consumption more predictable. Unfortunately, we can't do it now because of Kotlin/binary-compatibility-validator#282This is a WIP PR for those who are interested in trying the new daemon configurations.
