--- Comment #14 from Kalle Richter krichter@posteo.de ---
I think it's most likely a limitation of your system. How much physical memory does your system have? Do you have any swap space enabled? Are you running a 32-bit or 64-bit operating system? Can you try lowering the graphics quality, or using a smaller map in the game and see if that helps?
I have 16 GB RAM and 14 GB swap space and the game rarely uses more than 1 GB of RAM of which always plenty is available. I'm running Ubuntu 16.10 amd64.
With 1.9.23 I can run the game in 64-bit mode and I get the attached backtrace and the output available at https://richtercloud.de:451/index.php/s/8N1i7bcXJQjBjoL.
