Jun 30 23:32:12 rpi3 kernel: pid 60735 (c++), uid 0, was killed: out of 
swap space

No go with 2GB (I deleted the da0p1 swap partition; destroyed da0; then 
remade it it with a 2GB p1; then rebooted - no "too much swap" 
complaints). Out of swap with 56M of 2GB used. And this was with make 
-j2 buildworld.

Here's the top and gstat stats leading up to, at the time of out of swap 
and just after:
