Need to create a memory leak

Hi. This might be a strange request, but does anyone have any idea on a simple shell script that would use more and more memory as it ran? Like a purposeful leak. I want to test the behaviour of an already running program when the machine runs out of memory. Thanks!

vfs_readahead

VFS_READAHEAD(8)					    System Administration tools 					  VFS_READAHEAD(8)

NAME

       vfs_readahead - pre-load the kernel buffer cache

SYNOPSIS

       vfs objects = readahead

DESCRIPTION

       This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.

       This vfs_readahead VFS module detects read requests at multiples of a given offset (hex 0x80000 by default) and then tells the kernel via
       either the readahead system call (on Linux) or the posix_fadvise system call to pre-fetch this data into the buffer cache.

       This module is useful for Windows Vista clients reading data using the Windows Explorer program, which asynchronously does multiple file
       read requests at offset boundaries of 0x80000 bytes.

       The offset multiple used is given by the readahead:offset option, which defaults to 0x80000.

       The size of the disk read operations performed by vfs_readahead is determined by the readahead:length option. By default this is set to the
       same value as the readahead:offset option and if not set explicitly will use the current value of readahead:offset.

       This module is stackable.

OPTIONS

       readahead:offset = BYTES
	   The offset multiple that causes readahead to be requested of the kernel buffer cache.

       readahead:length = BYTES
	   The number of bytes requested to be read into the kernel buffer cache on each readahead call.

       The following suffixes may be applied to BYTES:

       o   K - BYTES is a number of kilobytes

       o   M - BYTES is a number of megabytes

       o   G - BYTES is a number of gigabytes

EXAMPLES

		[hypothetical]
		vfs objects = readahead

VERSION

       This man page is correct for version 3.0.25 of the Samba suite.
