Editor crashes during Sprite Atlas baking when not enough disk space is available

2D

-

How to reproduce:
1. Ensure system drive has less than 70GB available
2. Open project from "AtlasCrashRepro.zip"
3. Press "NFH>Bake SpriteAtlases for current Platform" from the toolbar or build the project

Expected result: Atlases bake successfully
Actual result: During the Atlas bake RAM and system disk usage go to 100% and shortly after the Editor crashes or freezes

Reproducible with: 2019.3.0f5, 2019.3.8f1, 2020.1.0b4, 2020.2.0a5
Not reproducible with: 2017.4.39f1, 2018.4.20f1, 2019.3.0f4

Notes:
1. AtlasCache needs to be cleared from Library folder
2. Around 70GB gets used during the bake and does not reproduce if enough storage is available

    Guys, seriously .. could you fix this Bug please ?
    The bug description here is absolutely wrong. Not only the reasoning is plain wrong by affiliating it with a certain amount of disk space available, its misleading too by implying an increase in free system disk space would provide a workaround.

    Unity even crashes with 100GB system disk space plus 32GB of RAM available.
    I'm longtime supporter for Unity and leaving such a serious CRASH bug open in the wild for such a long time is not what i expect from Unity.
    So please pump up the priority for this !

    Its primarily a RAM issue, not a system disk space issue. The growing disk usage happens because of the RAM gets eaten up completley, the swapfile gets used additionally and grows as it seems to about 70GB, a limit after witch the bug apparently recovers.The 70GB will certainly vary depending on yoiur available physical RAM. Also the affected disk will depend on the swapfile location.

    Additionally i have reproduced the bug on each of the public 2019.3 releases since they are out of beta, for certain with 2019.3.0f4 which is listed here for not reproducable for some reason
    this is the one single bug that prevents my project from being upgraded from 2019.2 to 2019.3.
