Sikuli itself is rather reliable now with regards to having no memory leaks (no real problem currently known).

When using long running complex Jython scripts, Java heap space might be a problem, caused by too much global stuff holding big data (images in memory) or other stuff that does not get eligible for garbage collection for some reason.
Increasing the Java heap space maximum to a suitable value (the bundled command scripts use -Xmx512M). On machines with enough memory this might be raised to -Xmx2048M.

Usually the problem with long running tests is, that on the way things happen on the screen, that are not foreseen in the workflow and might lead to a crash (popups, machine slows down caused by system processes, network speed slows down, ...)
