Tried running a profiler?

SILK and CELT use exactly as much heap since the only heap Opus needs is
the encoder state which holds both the SILK and the CELT state. What
stack allocator did you end up choosing? If you used the pseudo-stack,
then that allocates a lot of heap memory. If not, then maybe you have
some sort of collision between the stack and heap?

OPUS_APPLICATION_RESTRICTED_LOWDELAY will force CELT-only mode here,
regardless of other options.

No need to force mono since you're only encoding one channel (this does
nothing).
