Meanwhile I'm given a 16gb of ram laptop to compile Gradle projects on.

My swap file is regularly 10+ gigs. Pain.

That reminded me about trying to compile a rust application (Pika Backup) on a laptop with 4 GB of RAM (because AUR).

That was a fun couple of attempts. Eventually I just gave up and installed a flatpak.

God bless flatpack in times of need
