I believe they sell phones with that amount of RAM these days, but they don't run ZFS on that phone as it's a "resource-constrained environment". ghc may eat quite some RAM (>2GB per process are not unheard of), you might have better luck if you don't use these: > USE_TMPFS=yes > ALLOW_MAKE_JOBS=yes > PARALLEL_JOBS=8 tmpfs uses your already scarce memory, and ALLOW_MAKE_JOBS will almost certainly run multiple ghc processes at the same time (it does so here).
