Crashes when rendering with Mental Ray

Hi, I need your help.. Again.

 

Still working on the same scenes as before. Anyway, i've got 4 similar scenes with slight differences. Though only one crashes all the time because of error: MEM 0.5 fatal 031008: can't allocate 524000 bytes. Is this a memory problem? I'm on a system with 4 GB RAM. I used to rarely get this error, but now i can't even render anymore. Though it seems it crashes at random times (sometimes in the beginning, now at pretty much halfway). Also rendering in Exposure control isn't possible.

 

I'm on a Vista 32 bit system.

I've also found if I switch from BSP to BSP2 it helps with limited memory.

 

Rendering -> Render Setup -> Renderer (tab) -> Rendering Algorithms -> Ray Tracing -> Raytrace Accelleration

[x] Enable

Method: BSP2
