1) spark 9GB phys mem(Python is working fine)
2) stalker 12GB phys mem (that has problem with python 2.5 )

Can you also provide a gdb/dbx backtrace of where the problem occurred?

This tracker is not about assistance. If at all, we need you to assist
us.

Can you please report more details, like stack traces, causes of the
crash, patches? If not, I think there is little we can do about this report
("it crashes" is pretty unspecific).
