I missed your first asking the question. You've basically run into a
hard limit on a kernel memory type. The solution is either 1) get more
memory, 2) raise MAXUSERS in your kernel. There may be a single
parameter you can tweak to raise this, but fixing that will probably
cause you to start running out of one of the other things that
MAXUSERS raises.
