I'm trying to build a vue.js app for production. This error message always appears midway through.
FATAL ERROR: Ineffective mark-compacts near heap limit Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory
I already tried to increase the memory by adding --max_old_space_size=4096
and even tried to change it to 8192, but to no avail. I am using a Mac with 8 GB of RAM so I'm not sure why this is happening.
This is the code I run for npm run build:
vue-cli-service build --max_old_space_size=4096
Open the Start menu, search for Advanced System Settings, and select the Best match. In the Variable name field enter NODE_OPTIONS. In the Variable value field enter --max-old-space-size=4096. This value will allocate 4GB of virtual memory to Node.
Resolving the Memory Leak In the above example, we can use our hide() method to do some clean up and solve the memory leak prior to removing the select from the DOM. To accomplish this, we will keep a property in our Vue instance's data object and we will use the Choices API's destroy() method to perform the clean up.
This generally occurs on larger projects where the default amount of memory allocated by Node (1.5gb) is insufficient to complete the command successfully.
js Memory Leak Example. To see the memory leak occur, open the Chrome Task Manager and then click the hide/show button 50 or so times. You should notice the memory continue to increase and not be reclaimed.
I ran into this problem too. The memory limitation was with Node so running this command worked:
NODE_OPTIONS=--max_old_space_size=4096 npm run build
On Windows, use:
set NODE_OPTIONS=--max_old_space_size=4096
npm run build
The default memory limit for Node is 512MB, running this command temporarily increased it to 4GB.
