> **NOTE:** Linking with debug information (`-D LLVM_ENABLE_PDB=YES`) is very memory intensive. When building with parallel jobs, it is possible to consume upwards of 32 GiB of RAM. You can append `-D LLVM_PARALLEL_LINK_JOBS=N -D DLLVM_PARALLEL_LINK_JOBS=N` to reduce the number of parallel link operations to `N` which should help reduce the memory pressure. You may need to set this to a low number (e.g. 1) if you see build failures due to memory exhaustion.
