 general questions about LLVM, please consult the `Frequently Asked
 Questions <FAQ.html>`_ page.
 
+If you are having problems with limited memory and build time, please try 
+building with ninja instead of make. Please consider configuring the 
+following options with cmake:
+ 
+ * -G Ninja
+   Setting this option will allow you to build with ninja instead of make.
+
+ * -DLLVM_ENABLE_LLD
+   Set this to ON to use the LLD linker. This significantly improves build time.
+ 
+ * -DLLVM_USE_LINKER
+   Set this to gold to use the gold linker to improve performance during build.
+
+ * -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE  
+   Set this equal to the build you wish to use, either Debug or Release. The 
+   Debug build may consume more memory during the linking phase. Another build 
+   type you may wish to consider is release-with-asserts which compiles at 
+   nearly the same rate as the Release build; however, it may not be as easy
+   to debug.
+
+ * -DLLVM_PARALLEL_LINK_JOBS  
+   Set this equal to number of jobs you wish to run simultaneously. This is 
+   similar to the -j option used with make, but only for link jobs. This option 
+   is of course only meaningful if you plan to build with ninja.
+ 
+ * -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD  
+   Set this equal to the target you wish to build. You may wish to set this to 
+   X86; however, you will find a full list of targets within the 
+   llvm-project/llvm/lib/Target directory. 
+
+ * -DLLVM_OPTIMIZED_TABLEGEN  
+   Set this to ON to generate a fully optimized tablegen during build. This will 
+   significantly improve your build time.
+
+ * -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS  
+   Set this equal to the projects you wish to compile. If compiling more than one
+   project, deliniate the list with a semicolon. Should you run into issues with 
+   the semicolon, surround it with single quotes.  
+ 
+ * -DCLANG_ENABLE_STATIC_ANALYZER  
+   Set this option to OFF if you do not require the STATIC_ANALYZER. This should 
+   improve your build time significantly.
+ 
+ * -DLLVM_USE_SPLIT_DWARF
+   Consider setting this to ON if you require a debug build, as this will ease 
+   memory pressure on the linker.
