emerge --info '=www-client/chromium-87.0.4280.88::gentoo'

Chromium fails to compile after emerge world with the following error:

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.
 * ERROR: www-client/chromium-87.0.4280.88::gentoo failed (compile phase):
 *   ninja -v -j9 -l0 -C out/Release chrome chromedriver failed


And this is the actual problem:

Can you attach full build.log (compress if needed)?

Thanks, you can try to use xz for compression next time, might save you from splitting build :)

From build.log (partC) I see:

...
FAILED: obj/content/browser/browser/web_bluetooth_service_impl.o 
...
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++: fatal error: Killed signal terminated program cc1plus
compilation terminated.

That means you run out of RAM and OOM killed g++. Try to reduce number of parallel jobs in MAKEOPTS. Good estimation is 2GB per compile job, but some chromium files are very large and g++ needs more than 3GB.
