Honored ContributorBasically, you do not have enough memory. IIRC, you need a minumum of 3GB phyisical memory (available) to compile stratix 5 properly.

There is a boot setting somewhere that increases the 2GB cap per process of physical memory, but I cannot recall where that is.
I would recommend moving to a 64-bit machine.
