It might be, that you hit an upper limit in Mac OS X:

[galadriel: memtext ] cug $ ./test
test(291) malloc: *** vm_allocate(size=2363490304) failed (error code=3)
test(291) malloc: *** error: can't allocate region
test(291) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in szone_error to debug
max alloc = 2253 M

Compiled with 64 Bit support the test program doesn't bring an error.

I have now tried to compile PostgreSQL as a 64 Bit binary on Mac OS X but wasn't able to do so. I'm running against the wall with my attempts but I must admit that I'm not an expert on that low level C stuff.

I tried with setting the CFLAGS env variable to '-mpowerpc64 - mcpu=970 -m64' but with that, I'm not able to compile PostgreSQL on my G5.

Has someone hints for that?
