  I didn't bother reading the entire tutorial (I've built maps before).  They do a good job of suggesting Zoner's for compiling but they tell you to use WC to start the compile and I'm assuming to run the map in HL when the compile is finished.  This is a MAJOR drag on your ram.  I suggest looking for a batch compiler (there are some listed for download on the CounterMap website) and using that to compile after shutting down WC.  BTW, compiling can take anywhere from a few minutes for a small map to many hours for a large map.

  hlcsg -hullfile c:\sierra\half-life\nstr\nshulls.txt -estimate imp01.map -texdata 10000
  hlbsp -estimate imp01.map            
  hlvis -estimate -fast imp01.map            
  hlrad -estimate imp01.map
  
  del c:\maps\nstr\*.max
  del c:\maps\nstr\*.p0
  del c:\maps\nstr\*.p1
  del c:\maps\nstr\*.p2
  del c:\maps\nstr\*.p3
  del c:\maps\nstr\*.lin
  del c:\maps\nstr\*.prt
  del c:\maps\nstr\*.pts
  
  that is an example of a batch file for compiling.  Replace the imp01.map part with ur own exported .map and also change the paths on the "del" lines to whichever folder you are running your compile on.  I also put the compile tools (hlbsp, hlcsg, hlrad, hlvis) in the same folder as my batch file so the path for that is just "hlbsp" etc.  To create a batch file, you take all those lines above and copy them to notepad, then go to save as, select "all files" instead of "txt files"  and save as "compile.bat" WITH the quotation marks-->""
