Doc build killed during pip installation of large (~190 MB) dependency

Details

• Project URL: https://github.com/smurching/spark-sklearn
• Build URL (if applicable): https://readthedocs.org/projects/spark-sklearn-smurching/builds/6008665/
• Read the Docs username (if applicable): smurching

Expected Result

I'm trying to publish docs for spark-sklearn & am testing out the readthedocs build on my personal fork.

Actual Result

The build attempts to install a ~190 MB dependency via pip install pyspark and is killed.

I'm not sure why this is happening; the only build env limitations I can find are the 15 min, 1 GB RAM limitations described at http://docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/builds.html#build-process.

This looks to be hitting a memory limit. Docker doesn't always give us a reasonable exit code or kill reason. If you don't need the dependency for you documentation directly, I'd suggest mocking out the dependency. You can find an example in our docs.

Hi @smurching! I'm closing this one since there was a solution proposed here. Feel free to reopen if you consider. Thanks!
