Troubleshooting
Out of Memory
An out-of-memory condition occurs when a workload cannot obtain required memory within its system or resource limit. The operating system, container runtime, or application may terminate work; an exit code alone is not conclusive evidence.
Also known as: OOM, OOM kill
Why it matters
Resource exhaustion can resemble a tool failure unless termination evidence is correlated with metrics.
Practical example
Correlate process termination with memory metrics and reduce parallel workers before assuming a compiler defect.
