[Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez]

I have cleared the ccache on the bot and now seems to be working.
I have just triggered a clean build to see if it completes

[Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez]

It seems this is still an issue.

GCC is being killed by the kernel OOM killer.

This bot has a limit of 22GB of RAM, and is running with 8 build parallel process. 

It looks something has made GCC (or ccache?) to use much more memory than previously when building in debug mode.

Could r222170 have somehow caused this (maybe triggered also with the unified builds of JSC)?.  That is what the log of the bot suggests:  https://build.webkit.org/builders/GTK%20Linux%2064-bit%20Debug%20%28Build%29/builds/5175


I have just raised the RAM a bit, 25 GB.. let's see if this helps.

[Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez]

And this continues to happen.

Further inspection reveals that the bot is now trying to build with 48 parallel process rather than 8 as I have configured it via the environment variable NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS=8

It seems this was caused by r222160 <https://trac.webkit.org/222160>
