Comment (by dimpase):

 Replying to [comment:140 vbraun]:
 > There is apparently an overflow in gap's argument parsing at `3*2^31`:
 > That explains why you get the ENOMEMs. But gap tries smaller and smaller
 mmaps until it succeeds, so this is not a real problem. It will eat the
 available swap space and put much more pressure on the virtual memory
 system, though. I'll report this issue upstream.

 by the way, GAP finally has a real [http://tracker.gap-system.org/
 tracker]!
