Out of memory allocating 65536 bytes

Description

I am getting random out of memory errors after switching to windows 2022 #4856 .

If I rebuild with the same workflow the errors sometimes disappear and the build completes, although it can take multiple attempts.

The issue never occurred on windows-2019

@GilesBathgate, Try to increase pagefile size - #2642 (comment)

[GilesBathgate]

@al-cheb I will try that, but 65536 seems specifically related to this:

Description
This error may be seen when compiling large software projects on Windows platforms. cc1plus.exe is a 32bit Windows application and has access to 2GB of memory on Windows.

Resolution
To work around this problem, Windows can be configured to allow 32bit applications access to a 3GB address space.

1. Enable 3GB address space for 32bit applications on Windows:
   From Windows command prompt run: bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVa 3072
2. Allow cc1plus.exe to use the larger address space
   From Windows command prompt run: editbin /LARGEADDRESSAWARE "/cc1plus.exe“
   This problem is scheduled to be fixed in a future release of the SoC EDS Software.

@GilesBathgate, Try to increase pagefile size

@al-cheb That seems to have done the trick. My previous comment was in relation to 32bit cc1plus.exe which is not being used.
