I understand the problem, but in my VM case ( nproc = 2 ) this suggestion would make things worse. Sure you mention to lower the number, but a newbie isn't aware how to figure the right one.
So what about dropping the j parameter for the low memory case?
Or at least explain what is little RAM?
Or mention that VM is usually very constraint regarding resources?

You are right, a fixed number may make things worse.
In fact, while this often happens in our VMs, this change addresses a case noticed both by us and by a customer in WSL2: The PC has 12 cores, and assigns all 12 to WSL2, but only reserves limited RAM. This is bound to fail. (The customer just repeated the build until it succeeded.)
Let's find a different way to address this.
