Android Studio build problem on Debian (Jessie) linux

Am trying to run Studio 2.1.3 on an Atom netbook with 1GB RAM. Oracle JDK 1.8. The build (of a virtually barebones project) never completes with the following exception in the console. I've googled this and there are many suggested solutions, none of which has helped me. Perhaps someone with a similar build environment can help?

Executing tasks: [clean, :app:generateDebugSources, :app:mockableAndroidJar, :app:prepareDebugUnitTestDependencies, :app:generateDebugAndroidTestSources]

Configuration on demand is an incubating feature.
Incremental java compilation is an incubating feature.

1024x600 is my resolution
Not sure if there's RAM expansion possible
Chris Harte
Atom netbook? I tried that once. You need WAY more processing power than that. Way more. Java may be free, but it does not come cheap.
Jackie Man
There are other requirements such as RAM and screen resolution.
