Thanks, I am just back from a Concert. I was suspecting OOM as well and now
created a testcase which allocates a BigObject and it is crashing too but you
were faster.

What do you propose as a proper resolution? Is there some kind of exception
and Context we could pre-allocate and then raise it? Maybe reserve some more
heap for the OOM case?
