This means you have in total only 128 MB of memory and it looks like that is not enough to satisfy the work you do. If you give it more swap space you probably get further but I don't think it will fly. You probably need to increase your virtual machine size (e.g. double it and see how much you use from that other than for buffer cache). Rob
