pfMalloc error

I'm trying to load a large terrain database into MaK's Stealth, which is a
Performer based application. I've changed the setup to only load one terrain
patch (so there would be no chance of me running out of memory). I'm using an
ONYX w/512MB RAM and 1GB or so of swap. I'm not using very much of its memory
during the load, yet it dies and gives the following error message:

Performer Fatal (12): pfMalloc() Unable to allocate 336012 bytes from the heap.

I've asked MaK and they thought I may have been running low on memory in
/usr/tmp, where the pfUtilDataPool____.pfdpool files are stored. I'm at about
95%, but I still have about 65MB or so, and no files seems to be written to
/usr while its trying to load the database.

Any ideas?

I'd appreciate any help.

Thanks,
Mike
