New submission from masterid:
os.system won't run any command and there is no error message when memory cannot be allocated.
It looks like Python is running a command but actually nothing happens.
I used subprocess.Popen instead and found out that
OSError: [Errno 12] Cannot allocate memory
I also tried gc.collect() to release memory, but it does not work.
