Build with <16 GB of RAM

[Maniues]

Is there any option to build this project without 16GB of RAM?
Maybe use swap or compile some elements separately?

I think you just need to add a swapfile or swap partition to your system? On linux that shall be pretty simple using swapon.

In the build.sh file (android-rebuilds/sdk/build.sh) I found the following information:

Note: you need more than 16GB memory excluding swap, or build will fail.

So, can I use the swap memory or not (e.g., when I have 8GB of RAM)?
