Steps to reproduce

  1. Push code changes to the connected repository.
  2. Vercel attempts to deploy the changes.
  3. The build process fails with the error message "x Internal errors encountered: external process killed a task" and "Error: Command "timeout 10m turbo run build" exited with 1".

Expected Behavior

The Vercel deployment should succeed and the application should be built and deployed successfully.

Actual Behavior

The Vercel deployment fails during the build process with the following error messages:

  x Internal errors encountered: external process killed a task
Error: Command "timeout 10m turbo run build" exited with 1
▲ Build system report
▲ To always completely log this report, add VERCEL_BUILD_SYSTEM_REPORT=1 as an Environment Variable to your project.
• At least one "Out of Memory" ("OOM") event was detected during the build.
  • This occurs when processes or applications running during the build completely fill up the available memory (RAM) in the build container. When this happens, the build container terminates one of the processes during the build with a SIGKILL signal.
  • Read this troubleshooting guide for more information: https://vercel.link/troubleshoot-build-errors

Additional Context

  • The issue seems to be related to the build process exceeding the available memory limit on Vercel.
  • The command that failed was timeout 10m turbo run build. This suggests the problem may lie within the turbo run build process.
  • I am not currently setting the VERCEL_BUILD_SYSTEM_REPORT=1 environment variable, but I will consider doing so for future builds to get more detailed information.
  • I have reviewed the troubleshooting guide linked in the error message (https://vercel.link/troubleshoot-build-errors) but haven't yet found a solution. I need to investigate potential memory leaks or inefficient processes during the build.
