Can you tell if it's something recent or it has always been like that? I can't tell. My host has restricted me recently to 4GB RAM max (no swap), and the buildbot is failing now, but I don't know if using so much memory is something recent or not. Previously I could use up to 32GB of RAM.

Is it possible your buildbot is set up to run the bigmem tests? IIRC, those would work correctly with 32 GB, but die a horrible death with only 4 GB available.

Regards, Nick.
