I'd got a similar problem with pari on a symbolic computation :
when the program ran out of memory, it tries to double the size
of its allocated memory (in my case it couldn't make better than
48MB RAM + about 30MB swap out of 96). For me, adding a swapfile
made the trick but in your case the swap file would be over 500MB.
