PT10 is a 32-bit application - it cannot address more than 4GB of RAM and frankly starts to get a bit flaky long before that. So here are a few possible short and long-term solutions for you respectively:
Short term:
1 Check your session for any plugins you aren't using at all and remove them
2 Switch superior to using 16-bit samples
3 Unload any drum kit elements you are not using
4 Try enabling Kontakt's memory server - this loads its samples external to the plugin thereby reducing the load on PT
Long term:
1 Upgrade to PT11 or higher
2 Look at an external plugin hosting solution like VEPro or Bluecat

What he said.... You're lucky to be getting out of memory error messages. They kick in when Pro Tools uses around 2.8GB of memory I think . When I used PT10 it would just crash with about 2.3GB memory usage. Keep an eye on OS X's Activity Monitor.
As for Pro Tools 11. The problem just goes away. 11.3.1 was by FAR the most stable version of Pro Tools I've ever used. Every VI I can think of has long since been compatible.
