Sorry for the late answer.

I've found in your log that you have
Normal free:3696kB ...

somewhat about 3MiB of normal zone. This is a good reason for oom killing.

Moreover, the info on top slabs is
dentry_cache         : size   18817024 objsize        144
page_beancounter     : size   23429120 objsize         32
size-4096(UBC)       : size    7970560 objsize       4096
filp                 : size    4075520 objsize        192
size-64              : size  710627328 objsize         64
radix_tree_node      : size   10047488 objsize        276
vm_area_struct       : size    8720384 objsize         88
pmd                  : size   16024320 objsize       4096
buffer_head          : size    4988928 objsize         52
ext3_inode_cache     : size   20996096 objsize        524


This shows that ~700MiB is busy with size-64 slab. This is a generic slab and many different objects can be stored in it. What exactly - this requires deeper investigation.
