Colin did not wrote WHERE to put it - he just wrote this:

... and I had that in release config.

But contents of 'release.conf.sample' are useless and misleading.

% grep -m 1 -B 2 WITH_VMIMAGES /usr/src/release/release.conf.sample
## Set to a non-empty value to build virtual machine images as part of the
## release build.
#WITH_VMIMAGES=



> Second, `release.conf=custom.conf` has no effect either.

I later moved to this ... and it failed on build stage everytime in different places:

# ./release.sh -c build.conf

... on system with 8 AMD Ryzen CPUs and 28 GB RAM and 200 GB of SSD.

But 'regular' command like that below worked without any problem:

# make -j 8 buildworld buildkernel



But all this is pointless now - I moved on to verimg(8) and I am more then happy with it.
