Storing savefile in /dev/shm (tmpfs - stored in RAM only) is an
optimization to load it faster. Normally this file takes about
300-400MB, so should be well below 2GB limit... It's size depends on
memory amount used in DispVM.
First I'd check what other files you have there and in /tmp - maybe some
old unused stuff. But if it still does not fit, you can disable this
optimization by:
touch /var/lib/qubes/dvmdata/dont-use-shm

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
