Container 'Build' exceeded memory limit React

[Paula Perret]

Hello, I'm having a hard time deploying my react app into production environment because it returns:

yarn build
yarn run v1.22.19
$ react-app-rewired build
Creating an optimised production build...
The build failed because the process exited too early. This probably means the system ran out of memory or someone called `kill -9` on the process.
info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/run for documentation about this command.
error Command failed with exit code 1.

I don't have any further information about what is causing the memory peak other than that log. This is my bitbucket pipeline file:

Does anyone know how to fix it or is there an easy way to discover which library or plugin is causing this peak of memory usage?

Hi @Paula Perret 

Not sure if this is useful, but I found a similar question to this on the Community.

Does this answer help at all? - https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Bitbucket-questions/Re-Container-Build-exceeded-memory-limit/qaq-p/2289638/comment-id/91040#M91040
