Thanks Steven for trying that out.

I am not sure if that will help, but emulated memory in mosrun is set to 2MB right now. If you could go into mosrun/main.h and change the line

const unsigned int kMosMemMax        = 2*1024*1024;  // Size of emulated RAM

to

const unsigned int kMosMemMax        = 16*1024*1024;  // Size of emulated RAM

and recompile and copy the program to your path again. I will also change that in the repo. If it still runs out of memory, then something else is broken and I have to dig deeper.
