Ok, its been pointed out to me by Niklas that the memory limit option
only works with an equal sign currently.
So you can do:
php runJobs.php --memory-limit=512M
and it should set the memory limit correctly.

I looked into this a little further. It appears the
--memory-limit
option for the script is broken (Not only that, its been broken for 8
years). I have a patch to fix it (
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/422359 ) which will hopefully be
included in MediaWiki 1.31.
In the mean time, you can try either:
* Check to see if its just one type of job, and run all the other
types to further narrow down where the problem is. (First run
showJobs.php --group to get a list of job types that you have. And
then run runJobs.php --type PUT_TYPE_NAME_HERE for each of the job
types listed by showJobs.php)
* If you think its just one bad job, you could delete that job (run
sql.php and then do: delete from job order by job_id asc limit 1;),
although I believe job queue would skip the failing job all by itself
if it was just that job.
* Manually upping the memory limit on line 51 of runJobs.php
(Replacing return "150M"; with return "250M"; ) [Or alternatively,
manually applying the gerrit patch I referenced above]
