Perhaps a package that report these things would be handy. I wish I knew. However, I am surprised your mapatoms runs out of space. It looks like all it will do is add a line to the buffer for a fairly small subset of symbols. It would be interesting to debug were most of the consing goes inside that mapatoms. Maybe running that code with a breakpoint in malloc would show you where. It might be due to undo entries.
