John,
Are you getting something about a malloc error in your logs? if so you are
trying to exceed your memusage and the program is just being shut down on you.
Happens to me all the time. if you are on UNIX type limit and then limit all
unlimited.

This is confusing, I admit, because CREATE() is a macro and not a
function. The second argument to create is supposed to be a type so
that the return value of malloc() can be typecast. If CREATE() is
failing it might indicate you're out of memory.
