I have 16 GB, with 8GB for $PORTAGE_TMPDIR on tmpfs. There were issues
with some packages having not enough space, so I have this in
/etc/portage/package.env:
app-office/libreoffice notmpfs.conf
dev-java/icedtea notmpfs.conf
games-fps/alienarena notmpfs.conf
games-fps/worldofpadman notmpfs.conf
games-sports/vdrift notmpfs.conf
mail-client/thunderbird notmpfs.conf
www-client/firefox notmpfs.conf
/etc/portage/env.d/notmpfs.conf has this entry, changing PORTAGE_TMPDIR
to real HDD space:
PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/var/portage/tmp
Most of these packages compile with 8 GB of space, but not with parallel
merges, like when Thunderbird and Firefox are both being built at the
same time.
