I ran into this problem too, and my plea for help went unanswered.
Finally, I broke down and took a look at the sources.  I was pleasantly
surprised to find a #define already present to fix the problem.

In common.h change the line that says:

#define     SPEEDOVERMEM

to

#undef      SPEEDOVERMEM

and compile medium model.  This results in an rn that isn't any slower
(at least from what I can tell), but doesn't run out of memory.
