It means that there is no more free memory. You need to use less memory in the rest of your program.

beside reduce the memory usage of my program, is there if i use external SRAM can increase the memory size?
Now i am developing the program using ESP32-WROOM-32D (4MB).

You could switch to a module with PSRAM, indeed.

thank you for the info.
Beside that, it seem like the wifi task took a lot of memory, is there a method i can flush out/clear the wifi memory ?

I think you can set the amount of tx/rx buffers in menuconfig. This will impact your WiFi speeds a bit, though; not sure if that's very relevant if you only send/receive mqtt messages.
