Is there still free memory (RAM) on your system?

Hi Florian,

I just tried again on an AWS Debian 10 t2.micro instance which provides 1GB
of RAM and received the same error message:
./guix/store.scm:1411:15: ERROR:
  1. &store-protocol-error:
      message: "unable to fork: Cannot allocate memory"
      status: 1
guix pull: error: You found a bug: the program
'/gnu/store/vrkkdjp010j9ml8cahk14zhbmk5k1cah-compute-guix-derivation'
failed to compute the derivation for Guix (version:
"1aa7f017e84491c83e4e90121a31ece6383abe2b"; system: "x86_64-linux";
host version: "1.3.0"; pull-version: 1).
Please report it by email to <bug-guix <at> gnu.org>.

Tried again on a t2.small instance which provides 2GB RAM and completed
without error so yes looks like a RAM issue.  Good to know, thanks
Mortimer
