There are several reports for this error message:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=%22probably+stuck+in
+an+infinite+loop%22

Pick one that seems closest to your circumstances and add your voice :).

I would start from this one:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=474327

since it mentions setting a Virtual higher than 2048.
