9.3MB must be the JPEG file, not the image in RAM, which is more like 300MB once loaded (and likely over a gigabyte in high precision). Inkscape needs 24bytes per anchor in a path, so you would need a very complicated image to use 1MB for image data in Inkscape.
You can have a look at your process monitor (possibly a "Resources" tab) to see how much memory is in use when Gimp crashes.
Image precision and interpolation algorithm can also have an influence.
