Thank you for the report! I think the problem was memory then, you nailed it - by reserving more memory, you were able to make it work. This is a policy and currently, the default is a bit conservative in order to not waste memory. It works in most of the systems...
We have a memory estimator project [0] that (hopefully) will help users to determine the proper amount of reserved memory for their systems. For now, I guess we can consider this bug fixed (by the reporter!).
