    Fedora is a great distro for development (used by Torvalds himself ;-).

    If RAM is a problem you could try using ZRAM. Unlike the name suggests, this compresses data in RAM instead of swapping to disk, so that more data fits in there than normally available. Fedora for example uses zswapzram by default with a value of max(0.5*RAM, 4GB) but can be configured to utilise more.

    EDIT: confused zswap and zram
