Hello,
I posted yesterday detailing this issue I am having:
yabai@newb:~$ notmuch new
Processed 1 files (0 files/sec.).
GLib-ERROR **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/gmem.c:239: failed to allocate 2147483648 bytes
aborting...
Aborted
I thought that I might have better success compiling notmuch from the latest source. I did this, and am still getting the same error. I am running Ubuntu 11.04.
Any tips or recommendations appreciated. I have Googled like crazy, but am coming up empty.
Nathan

Since you're now building notmuch from source, could you build it with
make clean && make CFLAGS=-g and run it under gdb again to get a
backtrace? I don't understand why strace didn't show it opening any
mail, but with debug symbols the backtrace should hopefully tell us
that.

First, thanks for your help! Perhaps I am making progress...
Here is what I get:

Perhaps this will help:

Ah! It did show up in the strace. /home/yabai/Mail/old.mail appears
to be the offending file. What's in it?

This is my file full of old mail. I believe it is in mbox format. It contains approximately 40K emails...could the format of this file affect things? Orginally, this mail was exported from Apple Mail.
Thanks again for the help.

notmuch doesn't support mbox files, but an mbox file looks enough like
a maildir message that notmuch will *try* to index it (but as a
single, gigantic message). This is certainly the cause of the
failure. The immediate solution is to move this file out of the tree
you're indexing with notmuch.
Still, notmuch should fail more gracefully and you are probably
hitting a real gmime bug (given that it's trying to allocate
(unsigned)-1 bytes of memory). How big is old.mail?

old.mail is about 5gb. I guess the file type is the problem...forgive me, I thought notmuch supported mbox.

There has been talk of supporting mbox for archival situations just
like this, but it's rather contentious because mbox is a terrible
format.
Since it's only 40K messages, there would be little overhead in
converting it to maildir, which notmuch could index. If you really
want to keep it in one file, you could convert it to maildir, pack
that maildir into an some archive format, and use FUSE or something
similar to mount that archive as a file system.
