BTW, can you please tell me
* Which architecture this is (x86 or x86-64)?
* The value of "ulimit -u" on this system.
* The total amount of memory on the system.

As Chet Ramey explained to me, the memory consumption is bound and the
default limit depends on these factors. Assuming an x86-64 system,
eating 22 MB of memory as you reported would take about 734000 records
of 32 bytes each, and "ulimit -u" would be set to that value by default
for a system with about 187 GB of memory. Which I would not expect in a
NAS, so something is wrong.
