It's rather easy to see why there would be a "memory allocation error";
I don't have 4,294,959,586 [4+ GIGAbytes] of memory!
Page where it occured -- twice with CSS=Yes and once with CSS=No
I was linking from http://www.cbs.com The VERY HARD TO SEE menu on the
left hand side of the screen provides a link TO http://cbsnews.com
[It is *slightly* easier to see if you have CSS turned off.]
The http://cbsnews.com URL is the one which produced the error, twice
with CSS=Yes and one more time with CSS=No.
Additional Note: Since I moved cache to HDD on the configuration where
I first had this problem, I was able to look through some of the files
in an attempt to figure out what the heck was going on. I found a TXT
file amid all the htm & graphics files -- it is an SWF file.
But the mere presense of Shockwave did not cause this type of error.
I've been to other sites that require shockwave and didn't get lockups on
them ...
AND, if you have the page cached on the HDD, when you reboot you MAY be
able to access the page from cache, and have it render without giving
Arachne a belly ache; if you manage it, the page *looks* like hell in
Arachne, but it renders. HOWEVER, I was only able to get the page to
render 1 try out of 3; the other two times I got the same memory
allocation error.
