Your broker is running out of JVM heap memory. From that moment on, anything can happen. I suggest you try to figure out the reason for running out of memory in the first place. Do you impose memory limits on each destination? Do you configure for a system memory usage in your broker that is well under the JVM heap memory limit?
Also, 5.3.2 is rather old and hundreds of bugs have been fixed since (including a couple of memory leaks). If possible, you might want to consider upgrading to the latest 5.5 version.
