Issue
-----

Memory consumption issues in Composer builds.

Resolution
----------

Consider adding the composer optimizations project, to remove legacy Symfony builds with: 

    composer require zaporylie/composer-drupal-optimizations

See more information about the project: [https://github.com/zaporylie/composer-drupal-optimizations](https://github.com/zaporylie/composer-drupal-optimizations)
