Comment (by vbraun):
Its not lack of actual memory, it is a lack of swap space. GAP reserves
addressing space and corresponding swap space such that the addressing
space could be actually used (potentially by swapping) if GAP were to use
that much memory. If the initial workspace is too large, it tries with
half the size iteratively until it succeeds. The "halving pool size" is
harmless but cannot be disabled.
