Another non-angular answer  I was facing the same issue building a react app on AWS Amplify   As mentioned by Emmanuel it seems that it comes from the difference in the way memory is handled by node v10 vs node v12  I tried to increase memory with no avail  But using node v12 did it  Check how you can add nvm use  VERSION NODE 12 to your build settings as explained by richard  frontend    phases      preBuild        commands          - nvm use  VERSION NODE 12         - npm ci     build        commands          - nvm use  VERSION NODE 12         - node -v         - npm run-script build

For me  the issue was having an extra node modules folder that I renamed to node modules old and running an npm install to generate a fresh node modules  Somehow the build must have still been picking up the node modules old folder  so I moved node modules old out of the directory to fix the issue

In my case it was a recursion that was causing react to use up all memory   This happened when I was refactoring my code and didn t notice this   const SumComponent        gt      return        lt  gt         lt SumComponent   gt       lt   gt           In other node apps this might look like    const someFunction        gt            someFunction

node --max old space size 4096   node modules  angular cli bin ng build --prod --build-optimizer adding parameter --build-optimizer  resolved the issue in my case  Update  I am not sure why adding only --build-optimizer solves the issue but as per angular docs it should be used with aot enabled  so updated command should be like below --build-optimizer true --aot true  Angular build docs

Try this solution which was pointed out in an old message on the forum  https   forum ionicframework com t 3-7-0-ios-build-with-prod-not-working 107061 24  Open node modules  ionic app-scripts bin ionic-app-scripts js  Change the first line from      usr bin env node   to     usr bin env node --max-old-space-size 4096   Try values 1024 and 2048  but for a relatively large app you may need 4096

For a non-angular general answer for those who land on this question from Google  Every time you face this error its probably because of a memory leak or difference  between how Node  lt   10 and Node  gt  10 manage memory  Usually just increasing the memory allocated to Node will allow your program to run but may not actually solve the real problem and the memory used by the node process could still exceed the new memory you allocate  I d advise profiling memory usage in your node process when it starts running or updating to node  gt  10  I had a memory leak  Here is a great article on debugging memory leaks in node  That said  to increase the memory  in the terminal where you run your Node process  export NODE OPTIONS  quot --max-old-space-size 8192 quot   where values of max-old-space-size can be   2048  4096  8192  16384  etc  UPDATE  More examples for further clarity  export NODE OPTIONS  quot --max-old-space-size 5120 quot   increase to 5gb export NODE OPTIONS  quot --max-old-space-size 6144 quot   increase to 6gb export NODE OPTIONS  quot --max-old-space-size 7168 quot   increase to 7gb export NODE OPTIONS  quot --max-old-space-size 8192 quot   increase to 8gb    and so on       formula  export NODE OPTIONS  quot --max-old-space-size  X   1024  quot   increase to Xgb    Note  it doesn t have to be multiples of 1024     max-old-space-size can be any number of memory megabytes MB  you have available
