Hello,

More information is needed.

Please indicate the type of virtualization used (VMware, Xen, KVM,
OpenVZ), your operating system and Tor version as well as the "out of
memory" log messages you mentioned - are these from kernel logs or
Tor's log?. Setting Tor's log level to debug mode or info mode could
also help.
