 From your logs it kind of looked like SC was trying to allocate all 
that memory... but I may have misunderstood.

Anyway, jack2 has a compile option for run-time performance metrics 
(configure with "--profile", I think).  If enabled, it has to lock down 
gobs of memory for storing run-time events.  The only way to disable it 
is to recompile JACK without it.  Did you happen to enable it?
