Which resource exceeded the allowed resource quota?

With some jobs, I received the following error message.

Build exceeded allowed resource quotas. Fix your build to consume less resources or contact AppVeyor support to request quotas increase.

Questions

Q1. What is causing the resource quota limit to be reached? Disk space, memory usage, or network traffic?
Q2. How much would our cost change if we ask to increase the quota?

    Hi Keita,

    Usually, it's outgoing network traffic which is capped to 2 GB per job, by default for all accounts. I lifted that quota to 5 GB for NozomiIto account - let me know if that worked.

    Hello Feodor,

    Thank you!
    After your operation, the job passed these four days.
    The issue seems to have been solved.

    Best Regards,
