Memory Issue? Nix develop not able to work

BriefNCounter · November 1, 2023, 10:34am

When I try to run a flake in a development environment, “nix develop”, it is getting killed, or freezing the system.

There seems to be a memory problem.

HTOP shows the same application (/nix/store/vhh1c4d17f9ji2kal5das7n499zwhqmm-brave-1.59.120/opt/brave.com/brave/brave --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder,VaapiVideoEncoder --disable-features=UseChromeOSDirectVideoDecoder) opening multiple pids, which looks odd.

“ps auxf” (pared down output)
