Hi @sani, this issue is happening because typescript is quite resource intensive (in term of RAM). How much memory do you have on your setup? 8GB is enough if you disable typescript checker in twenty-front
You can remove the checker by editing:
packages/twenty-front/vite.config.ts
if you have more than 8GB you should be completely fineI've 16 gb of ram
I checked, it goes up to 14gb of usage and then throws this error
to 14GB !?
could you run npx nx run twenty-front:start and tell me how much it takes?
twenty-front should take around ~4GB without tsc and 5GB with tsc
twenty-server should take around ~2GB RAM
will probably change the config file for now
@charles let me know if theres any solution for this
Ok, so you start at 5.7GB and ends up at 13.7GB. It's ~8GB which is ~5.3GB for the FE and ~2GB for the backend. We are working on reducing the FE one but we need to split the project in different packages
changing the config file will likely free ~1 or 2 GB
if you want to monitor closely, you can start the frontend and the backend separately by running: npx nx run twenty-front:start (resp. twenty-server:start)
