The error message is misleading. When a amalloc fails, we
don't differentiate between the arena having filled its
default maximum size of 256MB and the arena failing at
some smaller size because swap space or disk space
(PFTMPDIR) has run out.

In your case, I suspect the latter, so you should try
calling pfSharedArenaSize() to request a larger arena
before calling pfInit. Must be a big database.
