Rev cache RAM = 2770 Mbytes
There is 1 rev cache instance with 2770 Mbytes limit

There is a known issue on systems with large amounts of RAM,
in that they may run out of virtual memory space, and a malloc
unexpectedly fails.
You could try working around the problem by setting the
environment variable ARGYLL_REV_CACHE_MULT to something
less than 1.0 (ie. try 0.7), and see if that helps.
See <http://www.argyllcms.com/doc/Performance.html> for
more details.
