   I created a heroku buildpack for zig to tried and deploy a stupid simple zig streamserver app and it also fails build on a server with 1GB of memory without any extra swap space.

   -----> Building zig project
   remote: allocation failed
   remote: Unable to dump stack trace: debug info stripped
   remote: 
   

   After adding 1GB of swap space it worked.

   From watching with top it seems zig requires about minimum of 1.2GB of free memory to build a very simple project.

   Duplicate of #471. The main effort to address this is working towards the self-hosted compiler + #6378.
