I cannot confirm your hypothesis. In my testing environment, zsh-4.3.11
raised the error when the condition (newsize > MAX_MAXJOBS) in expandjobtab()
became true:
https://sourceforge.net/p/zsh/code/ci/zsh-4.3.11/tree/Src/jobs.c#l1735
At that time, the total amount of memory allocated by malloc() was 689120
bytes (<1 MiB) on an x86_64 machine with 16 GiB of physical memory.

Definitely an improvement but it does not solve the problem in question.
