Bug report

The website requires more than 7GB of memory to build, which exceeds the GitHub actions machine memory limitation.

The website will be no longer be updated until the issue gets resolved.

New package submissions WILL NOT be available on the OpenUPM website, but WILL still appear on the OpenUPM registry.

https://github.com/openupm/openupm/runs/3610593661?check_suite_focus=true

[2387:0x4b4ec20]   579661 ms: Mark-sweep (reduce) 7143.9 (7184.3) -> 7142.9 (7185.3) MB, 28939.6 / 0.1 ms  (average mu = 0.044, current mu = 0.001) allocation failure scavenge might not succeed

What is expected?

Build without the memory allocation failure.

What is actually happening?

Memory allocation failure, due to the 7GB memory limitation of GitHub build machine.

Potential solutions

1. uses macos-latest build image which runs on a Mac VM with 14GB memory - free, but not sure if the build script can run on a macOS.
2. rents a Linux VM with more memory +$80/mo - not affordable.
3. uses netlify's high-performance build service with 36GB memory - needs to contact sales, usually not affordable.
4. hunt memory leaks in the vuepress build process - harder, takes more time.

Will try 1 then 4.
