Thx for your response, Martin. As I tried to say it is just the cmake process running. No compilation involved. There is only very little RAM usage, but cmake occupies one CPU-core (maxes out at 100%, but still not enough to make the fans spin up).
So I don't think this specific issue is due to RAM limitations. I had issues building webkit-gtk in the past. That was solved by using clang + ld.gold. This works fine with make -j11 + distcc. BTW.: I saved the DependInfo.cmake files. I compressed and attached them. Hope that helps.
