First part of your question:

Error Message
%CFT_API-3-CFT_ERRMSG_NO_MEMORY: [chars] [chars] [dec]
Explanation
The system was unable to supply the requested memory for flow processing to continue
Recommended Action
Reduce other system activity to ease
memory demands. If conditions warrant,
upgrade to a larger memory configuration.

Pretty generic, but its a start, the process in question is cft_flow_lookup.

This may be an indication of a deeper resource issue.
