I've seen this happen in big projects at link time, since linking uses
a lot of memory (and makes the build host thrash).

Does it hang when linking? Can we see a link to check it out?

If it's the case, it could be fixed by passing an option to ld that
makes it use a lot less memory while linking, instead using more CPU -
which is fine in this case, it's better than thrashing.

Thanks for the works done on this! A fixed jack has been submitted to
multimedia:libs (seems waf -j<n>, where n > 1 is not a good idea for
the obs builders).

Thanks a lot Claudio!
