A user has reported that this did fix the driver installation issues under bookworm and pi zero w2 |

Force push didn't change anything but simplify how threads are set, instead of dividing by 2 it just hard sets threads to 2 if there is 512 mb or less memory and more than 2 cores (which is the case for Pi Zero 2W). In my testing it was enough to avoid OOM issue. |

@synesthesiam could you review and merge this? This is needed to workaround OOM issues when installing the driver on bookworm. Thanks! |

When running the latest, non-legacy Raspberry PI OS Lite version, it seems that some people with Pi Zero 2W boards are unable to install the respeaker driver due to running out of memory, see #170 (comment)
Someone adjusted swap size to workaround this, and it compiled successfully.
In my less intrusive workaround, I've changed the script to compile the dkms module with half the threads if the board has less than 512MBs of main memory. This should lower the memory requirements and avoid OOM issues.
