TestBigArgs kills both my windows and darwin machines with 4GB RAM. The test eats all
available memory.
Probably my linux machine with 64GB RAM would be able to run it, but I would like to run
them of other machines as well.

It is just testing an error message, so if it is a pain we can delete it.
Why is it using real memory and not just address space?
