ns and memory

[Sasha Malchik <sasha@mit.edu>]

Hi,
I'm using ns on a BSD machine with 64M physical RAM and no other
processes running to simulate my quite simple protocol (written as an
agent in C++), using gt-itm generated and sgb2hierns converted topology
graph, and the simulator seems to run out of memory (virtual memory
exceeded in new, or segmentation faults) with as low as 300 nodes in a
graph (even less if trace is turned on).  I used all the advice on
memory conservation at
http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns-debugging.html, 
but it helped only a little.

Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot.
