The only reasonable reason would be that you don't have enough
RAM and swap to do rsync backups of large targets.  When you
run completely out of memory, processes may be killed more or
less at random.  Rsync puts the entire directory list in memory
on both sides as it starts the run.

If that isn't the case, you have some hardware problem - bad RAM
is probably the most likely.
