I also noted that on a big multiproject build because I was reloading
ivy in each sub-project.  Fixing that solved my problem.

yes we've seen this. i am not sure it has anything to do w/ Ivy. it is
well noted that the ant and antcall tasks are memory intensive as they
created new classloaders. you can get around this by increasing the
permgen space for java when you run ant ...

$ export ANT_OPTS="$ANT_OPTS -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m"

you can probably make do w/ something <256M, but it depends on your build.
