ick, so maybe something is capturing all stderr/stdout to memory while each step is being run (instead of logging it to a file or filling a small buffer and then writing it out when it gets full)?

Also, even so, is it a 64bit process? I would be surprised if it's actually running out of virtual memory space (but maybe the virtual machine it's running on is configured with some strict resource limits?).
