I'm the maintainer of cfarm{420,421,422} and I noticed that cfarm421
spits out these in the kernel log message buffer:

  Test tw2494 is specifically a test that checks what is happening
if the program tries to allocate 4096 Tb (=2Gb*2Gb).


I was going to say "Give it some swap space?" but that seems so obvious to be fatuous, however, I wonder if the system running out of VM might affect other processes on the same machine.

Pierre, can you obtain the same effect by using ulimit?
