What value exactly did you use? Also, how much virtual memory do you have on that machine? Is it possible that enlarging the amount of virtual memory lets Emacs run OK even with the original 1.8GB allocation size? Finally, what happens if you start an Emacs session (with the 1.5GB allocation that you say work for you), and then start another Emacs session without exiting the first one? Does the second session start successfully and is able to start subprocesses normally?
