Is this a regression?

Yes, the previous version in which this bug was not present was:

@angular/cli 8.3.20
@angular-devkit/build-angular 0.803.20

Description

A clear and concise description of the problem...

After updating to 8.3.21, when I run 'ng build' or 'ng build --prod' the build reaches the 'Generating ES5 bundles for differential loading' stage. It then stops outputting information, and multiple report.xxx.json files (attached) are created, approximately 45 seconds apart.

Reverting back to 8.3.20 resolves this issue.

Can you provide the console output of the successful build? The amount and sizes of the output files are of particular interest.
Please also provide the options used within the angular.json file that would be used for a production build of the project. This would include the options object and the production configuration object for the build` target.
Do you happen to know what the total system memory as well as the available system memory was prior to executing the build?

Also of concern is that the following are not at .21 as the other dependencies are:

@angular-devkit/core              8.3.20
@angular-devkit/schematics        8.3.20

Are these manually specified in the workspace's package.json?

[jrdutton]

Thanks for the response.

Sorry to repeat, but this is failing on both debug and production environments.

However, on a successful build:

I have exact same issue, need help

[alan-agius4]

From #16520

ES5 bundles fail to be generated with the error "Maximum call stack size exceeded". In my case, I am building an application with Ionic, which leverages ES5. This appears to have been introduced with this commit.

I have created a repository that demonstrates this bug.

Checkout https://github.com/devinshoemaker/repro-max-call-stack
npm install
ng build
If you downgrade @angular-devkit/build-angular then build will complete successfully.

npm install @angular-devkit/build-angular@0.801.2
ng build
Issues that don't have enough info and can't be reproduced will be closed.

An update to this; changing the target property in tsconfig.json from es2015 to es5 results in a successful build.

[jrdutton]

FYI, changing to ES5 allowed my build to go through too

[shnave]

@devinshoemaker same here! changing to ES5 allowed my build to go through too.

[jessorlisa]

Changing the target to es5 disables differential loading, which may not be desired in all cases.
https://angular.io/guide/deployment#differential-loading

[AhsanAyaz]

Facing this on a CI pipeline as well. And have no desire to turn off differential builds.
Or, only disabling for a particular configuration in angular.json might be a feasible solution for me.

[devinshoemaker]

@AhsanAyaz you might try this workaround that was posted in a different issue: #16520 (comment)

[AhsanAyaz]

Facing this on a CI pipeline as well. And have no desire to turn off differential builds.
Or, only disabling for a particular configuration in angular.json might be a feasible solution for me.

The above was my use-case. If you also want to disable the differential loading only for a certain configuration, you can create a new tsconfig.something.json inside the src folder, similar to tsconfig.app.json.

For my case, I created a tsconfig.devserver.json with the following content:

{
  "extends": "../tsconfig.json",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "../out-tsc/app",
    "types": [],
    "target": "ES5",
  },
  "exclude": [
    "test.ts",
    "**/*.spec.ts"
  ]
}

And then I'm just running the below script to not ruin my other builds which use optimizations and are successful at the moment:

ng build --configuration=devserver --ts-config ./src/tsconfig.devserver.json 

• Fixed the problem for me 🎉
• Didn't have to modify tsconfig.app.json 💥

[jessorlisa]

It is working again for me with the latest versions (released a few hours ago):

"@angular-devkit/build-angular": "~0.803.22",
"@angular/cli": "~8.3.22",

[clydin]

The recently released version of the CLI (8.3.22) has several improvements to prevent excessive memory usage when processing source maps. Based on the provided reproductions, the memory usage issues were no longer present when using the new version.
For anyone experiencing memory issues, please update to the latest CLI version (currently 8.3.22). Also ensure that the @angular-devkit/build-angular version is at least 0.803.22. This package contains a majority of the build processing logic. It is also recommended to use the latest version of Node.js 12 as well (currently 12.14.1).

If anyone is still encountering issues after ensuring these changes, please open a new issue describing the problem and if possible provide a minimal reproduction.
In addition, please be aware that Node.js has a default memory limit of ~2GB and that for very large projects this may need to be increased. This can be accomplished via the following:
node --max_old_space_size=4096 node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng build
The 4096 value essentially represents a maximum memory usage value for the node process in megabytes. For this example, that would be 4GB of memory but can be adjusted as needed. Ensure that the system has enough physical memory to support the value chosen.

run for me too

I have encountered the same issue now when trying to build for test env using anuglar 9 with ivy disabled
