Seems so.
Funnily I had a similar surprise ~12 years ago.
It was with a reputable Ada 83 compiler (DEC Ada), on the university's
main server, with a very reputable system (OpenVMS).
I had declared: A: Matrix(m,n); somewhere, and the m's and n's were
enough for 500MB.
And told myself the system would be smart enough...
Build, run... oh, frozen - and everybody was going out of the offices:
"what happened with the mail ? what happened with... ?"
