Description
From a recent PPA build of the development branch on s390x using Ubuntu 20.04. (The same thing happened in Ubuntu 20.10, but not Ubuntu 18.04 or Ubuntu 21.04, where everything built just fine):

3311714395 bytes?!? That's over 3 gigs! Is this example really that big?

Research direction
Start with the Topcom package example _is__Regular__Triangulation.m2 and its isRegularTriangulation call, then inspect the package installation command and the linked s390x build logs. Reproduce the example on an affected build if possible and compare it with the successful Ubuntu builds. Done means the example completes without the multi-gigabyte allocation failure on affected s390x builds.
