I assume you are uysing a ramdisk, right? How big is this ramdisk?
Otherwise 21000 K free is not reasonable.
What makes you think you are running out of memory?

Which sort of data are you _trying_ to get in the first place? It
makes little sense just to poke around when you don;t know what
you're looking for...

I see no problem here. Linux implements virtual memory, so it is
perfectly normal that page faults happen (and will be handled).
What exactly is your problem?
