Here's a simpler example to get this error:

sage: m = maxima(2*10^6)
sage: time n=m.factorial()
Maxima encountered a Lisp error:
Memory limit reached. Please jump to an outer point or quit program.

Or, directly in Maxima:

(%i3) n : factorial(10^7);
GC Warning: Out of Memory!  Returning NIL!
Maxima encountered a Lisp error:
 Memory limit reached. Please jump to an outer point or quit program.
Automatically continuing.
To reenable the Lisp debugger set *debugger-hook* to nil.

----------------

Note that Sage's Maxima uses ECL.  So the basic question is, how can
we increase the memory that Maxima + ECL can use?
