@EvtK Updating the nx script in package.json as below have resolved the issue.

"ng": "node --max_old_space_size=5048 ./node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng",

"nx": "node --max_old_space_size=4096 ./node_modules/@nrwl/cli/bin/nx",

@evtk this approach works for me, edit scripts in package.json file

"app-nx": "node --max-old-space-size=8192 node_modules/@nrwl/cli/bin/nx", "affected:build": "npm run app-nx affected:build -- --base=master --head=HEAD"
