I tried building webkitgtk3 in a copr and the linker segfaulted as it was out of memory. I had to use a custom srpm with the debuginfo turned off before it would succeed -- is this expected given the fedora webkitgtk3 package builds fine in koji?
Thanks,
Richard.

Hmm, I think that there is no unified setup in Koji. Koji arm builders have 4GB RAM (not sure about swap), Copr builders have 5 GB RAM (but no swap).
Hmm, I may add swap to builders. But I still think it is not good behavior to need so much RAM.

I don't disagree, but webkitgtk3 uses the linker in a pathological way, and it only needs huge amounts of RAM (or swap) for a very small amount of time.
