I think it could fail that way for two reasons: /dev/shm size limit
(mount option, which I think you are saying you have set to 4GB?), or
your system ran out of RAM +swap. The directly listing in your first
message only shows 1.4GB, not 4GB, so perhaps it's the second problem.

It's strange that it's hashing the ~20B row table instead of the ~30M row table.
