My build machine has 8 cores + HT so bitbake enthusiastically assumes

16GB of RAM has always been more then enough with 4 core + HT, but now
building certain recipes (nodejs, but rust will probably do it as well)
eats up more memory then there actually is RAM causing excessive swapping.
The RAM usage depends heavily on what you are building ;) - It could be
some crazy C++ stuff ;)
Is Linux your build host?
Then you can use cgroups to limit resources like memory.
Do you use a build container? It uses cgroups underneath.
e.g. docker:
