According to the crash dump, rabbit is failing to allocate 6.9G when it 
already has 5.8G, giving a total of 12.7G. You said your machine has 
16GB of RAM and 8GB of swap, so growing a process to 12.7G shouldn't be 
a problem. What memory threshold does rabbit report in its logs? And do 
you have other programs running that consume a large amount of memory? 
Check with 'ps auxw --sort vsz'.

Regards,

Matthias.
