I increased swap space to 12G and it compiled most of the time.  It’s a
bit odd.  Sometimes it would fail with

    == Compilation error on file lib/system.ex ==
    ** (exit) :epipe

Other times it would get stuck compiling “lib/elixir/lib/system.ex”.
But with enough swap space it mostly compiles Elixir just fine.
