I have a program that throws a std::bad_alloc exception, even though there is clearly plenty of free memory left on my computer (see attached picture of page file usage history in Task Manager). Prior to program execution, memory usage was about 600 MB, during program execution it went up to ~1.3 GB, at which point a bad_alloc was thrown. I'm wondering, why would my program run out of memory so soon?
p.s. my OS in WinXP SP2
