>From my experience, if something is going to quickly eat 30GB of memory
then that raises some red flags:
1) What is the expected memory footprint for your workload? Can you check
that from the benchmark's publication? If 30GB isnt close to the expected
footprint then it's a simulator problem, else you need to shorten the input
set for your benchmark.

2) If this is SE mode and not FS mode this especially makes me think this
is a memory leak and you are not deallocating blocks correctly somewhere.
Run your program using 'valgrind', turn "leak-check" on and you can check
this scenario. (30GB in FS mode is still quite high though...)
