It has to do with contiguous allocation in your virtual address space.
You are asking for a large allocation which by definition must be
contagious in virtual addresses yet your virtual address space don't
have a free range of such addresses available.

So, I should consider myself lucky to get even my 1.1 GB contiguous VM, depending on what I have running on my system... If I kill Safari, with its now 2.68 GB VM, it could possibly succeed? How about first thing after a reboot? I guess the issue is really that even with a 64-bit VM address space, there's no guarantee even then that it would succeed. Maybe some sort of VM recompaction is due in OS X (Leopard)?
