macOS: huge memory/CPU consumption on building

I tried to build gstreamer on macOS 14.0 with main branch, MacBook Air M1 8GB RAM. On the last stage of building [(78/78) gst-plugins-rs -> built]

I faced with huge memory/CPU consumption.Screenshot_2023-11-02_at_16.55.31 Screenshot_2023-11-02_at_16.48.07

Is it normal memory usage for building on macOS? Is there feature to disable gst-plugins-rs building (I do not use these plugins)? The system time-to-time shows me dialog "Force Quit Application" with memory usage. What will be enough RAM for building gstreamer on macOS: 16/32 GB or maybe 64 GB? The significant building (more than 50 percents) time takes for build gst-plugins-rs. Thanks!
