First check that your program is not constantly eating memory while it
executes. If it does, it has a memory leak. Memory leaks are not
necessarilly your fault: the X11 libs you're using might leak, or the
compiler might fail to deallocate some temporary memory (I've seen this
happen).
Another cause for storage_error in some implementations is an access
violation (access to a memory address that you are not allowed to
read/write) or erroneous usage of the memory allocator, such as
deallocating the same object more than once (the standard recommends
Program_Error, but some implementations do raise Storage_Error).
Good Luck
