      FWIW, ran into this with a client's 1100 tonight. Got the "137" error and it also logged, "pid 56451 (pkg-static), jid 0, uid 0, was killed: failed to reclaim memory" to get it into this thread.

      The first time the update page showed the 137 error, the second time it didn't "stop" updating, just hung.

      System Activity showed this before restart:

      Mem: 11M Active, 37M Inact, 231M Wired, 520M Free
      ARC: 57M Total, 25M MFU, 29M MRU, 181K Anon, 357K Header, 2701K Other
      37M Compressed, 96M Uncompressed, 2.60:1 Ratio

      after restart, when the upgrade succeeded (from the command line):

      Mem: 125M Active, 73M Inact, 262M Wired, 472M Free
      ARC: 82M Total, 25M MFU, 55M MRU, 114K Anon, 554K Header, 2330K Other
      61M Compressed, 145M Uncompressed, 2.36:1 Ratio

      Another 1100 with a similar config updated fine from the web GUI.

      Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
      When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

        Going forward this should be less of an issue. We reduced the memory requirement for pkg by using a different compression.
