That is a very big file by any stretch, error -108 is the Mac telling BBEdit 
that it cannot allocate that much memory:

        memFullErr                    = -108, /*Not enough room in heap zone*/

Maybe BBEdit can open the file given enough RAM, but with 8GB your Mac is 
probably turning it down.
