 Using alloc and free too often, on various size but small object can subdivide
the memory in small blocks that cannot be any more connected. Progressively the
size of block you will be allowed to allocate will be smaller and smaller.

 If it's your problem, you should try to allocate fixed size blocks, so each
alloc and free matches.
