This could be a problem with your script. If you refer to an array
element that does not exist, it will be created with a null string
value. This may be unintended and wasteful of memory. This is
explained in the "Referring to an Array Element" section of the gawk
manual in a bit greater detail.
I am not aware of any memory limitations of gawk. Can you make more
virtual memory available?
