Do you have any process controlling system in use? I haven't seen any 'nice' message from lrzip yet. My system shows: $ lrzcat crash.lrz > /dev/null Failed to malloc tmp_outbuf in open_tmpoutbuf Cannot allocate memory Fatal error - exiting Seems to correctly handle the malloc error codes. I think the problem lies somewhere else and not in lrzip itself. Is you Sid installation up-to-date?

I don't think it worths to downgrade the machine to less than 4 GB RAM just for a test. But well, who knows?
