OK, that means that a call to mmap using MAP_ANONYMOUS returned
MAP_FAILED with errno set to ENOMEM. I see from the mmap man page
that that can happen when the process's has reached the maximum number
of mappings. It seems at least possible that you are running out of
maps before you are running out of memory. On a GNU/Linux system you
can see the maximum map count with "/sbin/sysctl vm.max_map_count".
You can change that value using /sbin/sysctl -w.
Thanks! This helped.
I assume that it might also help to override GGC_QUIRE_SIZE (now it's
set in ggc-page.c to 256, when mmap is used). But I did not check.
