There was a problem hiding this comment.
Is there some kind of cores-to-RAM ratio we could consider?
e.g. 512MB -> 1 core, 1GB -> 2 cores, etc?

@nucleogenic Probably! But the available memory also depends on what other processes are running and using resources on the RPi. And the memory used by the compiler depends on the complexity of the module currently being compiled. There are too many variables I think. |

This restores the previous behavior of using 1 core by default to compile piscsi in easyinstall.
What I found out is that a RPi Zero2 W runs out of memory very quickly compiling with even just two cores, when you run a 64 bit OS.
