I don't see why it is having trouble allocating only this small amount of memory, the server has over 8GB free so this must be a less obvious problem than indicated by the error.

By chance, are your processes limited to only 2gb memory? It is failing on an allocation that, I think, pushes it above 2gb.
The HASH LOADING STOPPED lines claim that the table is mostly empty. You can reduce ovlHashBits by one and save a bunch of space.

Do you have good reason to use 14-mers instead of the default? It won't help with memory usage, and will increase run times. It might actually be using more memory, because more 14-mers will look like useless repetitive kmers, and that's what it's trying to allocate space for.
