I just bought a new device for better work performance, and tried to run my project on it. It is an angular project that uses angular 11, and in my old laptop normally I have to set max old space size to 8GB from 4GB so it can run. I tried it on my new laptop, but received the same message. I tried to set the max size to 16GB, same thing.

I think it supposed to run smoothly due to the specs of the device, and tried searching for solutions but can't find anything.
Solved.
I have to settle with using
node --max_old_space_size=8192 ./node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng serve
directly on command line. For now this will have to do. Thanks to all who chimed in for solutions
