Using recommended settings for the Qemu VM of 512 MB ram from 
https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Running-Guix-in-a-VM.html,
guix pull fails.
Increasing ram to 1024 MB and running on fresh VM fixes the issue.
It would probably be best to just update the command on the website to
1024 MB.
Output below.

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Gregory,

I changed the last mentions of 512 MiB to 1 GiB for exactly this 
reason, but that was in July…

The string ‘512’ doesn't occur anywhere on that page.  Could you 
clarify?

Thanks!

Can't find 512 mentioned in our current manual, except for the hurd VM
service.  Closing for now.
