Hi Robert,

the memory failure is about the "PKG" or "private" memory pool, the setting 
you've quoted is about the shared memory pool. Both are seperated. Try to 
increase the private memory pool as well, you can specifiy it (in the old 
version you use) in the config.h file before the compilation.

Viele Grüße/ best regards,
