--------cut memleak.c -------
#define gigs = 8 // your gigabytes here
#include <stdlib.h>
int main() {
  long int i=0;
  while(i<1024*1024*1024*gigs/2) {
    void *nofree = malloc(++i);
  }
  return 0;
}
---------cut-------

Try this w/ gcc -o memleak memleak.c; ./memleak

No free() after malloc() should give memory leak, isn't it?
