# V017\. The analyzer terminated abnormally due to lack of memory\.

The V017 warning in the report means that the analysis was urgently stopped due to a lack of free RAM required to run the analyzer\. This usually happens when the analysis is running with a large number of threads in relation to a small amount of free RAM\.

## Possible solutions

At least 2 GB of memory per analysis thread is required for the C and C\+\+ analyzer core to run stable\. There are several ways to resolve this issue:

* reduce the number of analysis threads;
* increase the size of the swap file\.

**Note\.** Attempting to fix the error by simply increasing the size of the swap file may issue the [V006](https://pvs-studio.com/en/docs/warnings/v006/) warning\.

The following describes how to reduce the number of analysis threads in the various product components\.

**Plugins for IDEs\. **In the PVS\-Studio plugin settings, set the 'ThreadCount' option to a lower value\.

**PVS\-Studio\_Cmd / pvs\-studio\-dotnet**\. In the [analysis configuration file](https://pvs-studio.com/en/docs/manual/6653/) \('Settings\.xml'\), set the 'ThreadCount' option to a lower value\.

**CompilerCommandsAnalyzer / pvs\-studio\-analyzer**\. Lower the number passed to the '\-j' / '\-\-threads' parameter\.

**Integration with Unreal Build Tool\.** Use the 'BuildConfiguration\.xml' file with the following [configuration](https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/ProductionPipelines/BuildTools/UnrealBuildTool/BuildConfiguration/):

```cpp
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
 <Configuration xmlns="https://www.unrealengine.com/BuildConfiguration">
   <ParallelExecutor>
     <MaxProcessorCount>1</MaxProcessorCount>
   </ParallelExecutor>
 </Configuration>
```
