You have told us nothing whatsoever about your platform.

errno 12 on some systems is ENOMEM /* out of memory */

Google "Could not allocate register file" has hits relating to out of

Do you really need to allocate 600 QScriptEngine objects? As a test, I
have allocated over 8000 before I got bored with all the swapping.
