"rvm docs generate" is killed

Any idea why rvm(1.18.15) fails to generate the document for ruby2.0?

$ rvm docs generate

ri documentation, be aware that this could take a long time, and depends heavily on your system resources...
( Errors will be logged to /home/user/.rvm/log/ruby-2.0.0-p0/docs.log )

    rvm get head
rvm reinstall 2.0.0 --docs
