Comment (by phk):

 Hmm, that's too bad.

 Yes, the way to go is to try with a smaller storage file.  Basically the
 storage file is mapped into virtual memory, so whatever size it has is not
 available for threads, libraries, and other allocated memory.

 This is a non-issue on 64bit machines, but on 32bit machines once you
 start talking gigabytes, things get tight very fast.

 I would probably start with .5 or 1 GB of storage and see how things
 develops from there.
