I am getting the following message on a regular basis. It looks like
it comes from some system utility, may be mail...

[porky] /usr/lib/uucp 21 #Aug  4 16:38:06 porky unix: NOTICE: growreg - Insuff
ient memory to allocate 510845 pages - system call failed

Does anyone knowns what it means, beyhond the direct meaning of having some
program requesting an absurdly large amount of memory?
