'Gnu make Windows *virtual memory exhausted*

I am using a windows version of gnu make 4.3 (https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/) it is build with a provided bat file as x64 appliaction. On one project which does have about 1100 files (~550 cpp files and the same number of headers) I get always

virtual memory exhausted

Did someone know a solution?

EDIT:

Looks like x64 Version of gnu make crashes. 32 Bit Version works.

Try compiling with less active CPU cores such as make -j 2 or make -j 1.
