Angular 7 app working in GAE Flex environment, but not in Standard

Question

After I have deployed my angular 7 app and trying to open it on browser, I get Error 500. Checking log I find this:

A  FATAL ERROR: CALL_AND_RETRY_LAST Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory 
A   1: node::Abort() [node]

Thing is, if you google FATAL ERROR: CALL_AND_RETRY_LAST Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory the fix should be changing package.json start line to this "start": "node --max_old_space_size=4096 dist/server",. With this the error from log goes away, but page still gives error 500 and now logs shows only this:

F  GET 500 0 B 3.3 s Chrome 70 / GET 500 0 B 3.3 s Chrome 70 5cb9a64b00ff0dd3429e5e7b0e0001657e6e6f6c696665000166726f6e74656e643a323031393034313974313333353337000100
A  Node Express server listening on http://localhost:8080

Maybe I need to write something more into app.yaml file or change it, right now it looks like this:

runtime: nodejs8
env: standard
service: frontend

My angular app is also server side rendered and doesn't use firebase.

I got it working. Problems seems to be in app.yaml file. I had to set instance_class to F2. If you don't set you are default F1 and memory in that class was too low. Now my app.yaml file looks like this:

runtime: nodejs8
env: standard
service: frontend
instance_class: F2
