Jim, thanks for reply.
I can not add swap on this station.
I succeeded to stop the program just before the exit out and run /bin/top - to see how memory it consumes: VIRT=79248, RES=28m
when there is a lot of free memory: ~400MB
It looks so:
%> top
Mem: 8017116k total, 7601900k used, 415216k free, 21300k buffers
Swap: 2097144k total, 184k used, 2096960k free, 2211488k cached
14315 baruchgu 25 0 79248 28m 472 R 99.8 0.4 0:43.47 vgen
Why malloc may not allocate more?
Again - it runs fine on five other linux stations.
note: I go to see into Dmalloc

NAME
free - display information about free and used memory on the system
SYNOPSIS
free [-b|-k|-m|-g] [-l] [-o] [-t] [-s delay ] [-c count ]
DESCRIPTION
free(1) displays the total amount of free and used physical memory and swap space in the system, as well as the buffers and cache consumed
by the kernel.
OPTIONS
Normal invocation of free(1) does not require any options. The output, however, can be fine-tuned by specifying one or more of the follow-
ing flags:
-b, --bytes
Display output in bytes.
-k, --kb
Display output in kilobytes (KB). This is the default.
-m, --mb
Display output in megabytes (MB).
-g, --gb
Display output in gigabytes (GB).
-l, --lowhigh
Display detailed information about low vs. high memory usage.
-o, --old
Use old format. Specifically, do not display -/+ buffers/cache.
-t, --total
Display total summary for physical memory + swap space.
-c n, --count=n
Display statistics n times, then exit. Used in conjunction with the -s flag. Default is to display only once, unless -s was speci-
fied, in which case default is to repeat until interrupted.
-s n, --repeat=n
Repeat, pausing every n seconds in-between.
-V, --version
Display version information and exit.
--help Display usage information and exit
FILES
/proc/meminfo -- memory information
