Cloning medium/large repo crashes the app

[crutchcorn]

While trying to clone the medium-sized repo: https://github.com/unicorn-utterances/unicorn-utterances

I find myself facing the following error:

It's worth mentioning that android:largeHeap="true" is already set to true

It's also worth mentioning that said repo is only 103MB, so where exactly is the other 200MB coming from?
