I also pointed out that we see the same error message in our CI and the infra folk assured me that the paging file was not misconfigured in any way.

That said, while I understand the addition of the `@requires >= 8G`, I don't under stand why the actual Xms/Xmx values were bumped from 5G to 6G - that seems to be increasing the chances of running out of memory. ??
