Output:

This is a vanilla angular 9.0.4 installation and I'm simply running ng build --prod on a fairly complex and big angular project.

I've noticed that a similar error was reported as fixed in 2.3.3, but as per yarn.lock I see that angular 9.0.4 uses the 2.3.3 version under the hood.

Any clues?

Apparently restarting and/or giving the WSL Ubuntu VM 10 GB of RAM made the error go away. It was assigned 6GB prior.

This seems pretty worrying as far as memory usage goes. The error might be caused by this:
