I don't know how it happened to you but my mac "only" has a total of 32GB of RAM and it compiles Node.js without issues.

Could you please provide the exact configuration you ran? Also, the model number/name.

Configuration file - ./config.mk

What model do you mean? MacBook model?

Yes. So that some of the contributors having similar mac model will try with the above config. You can edit the above comment and add it there. It will be easier to grab at a glance.
