Well, Roberto has identified the problem, tho I don't understand
the why of what the underlying problem is.
Reducing the 500000 to 300000 and it works, upping it to 400000
causes it to fail. With 500000 its only 100MB so I dont see how
that should be a problem (the machine has 1GB of memory).
AND of course, the fact that it worked with 500000 up until
yesterday. Some library must have changed out from under
me,- Ill have to look at the YUM updates.
Its too late tonight to attempt to recode this, but perhaps if I
malloc the space rather than just allocating it.
In any case, I now know what is failing, so I can attack the
problem.
Strange.
