You don't mention which OS you are on, but try getting the latest
CVS, then you should be able to run SBCL as eg:

 sbcl --dynamic-space-size 1024

to get 1GB of heap -- assuming your OS hasn't mapped something else where
SBCL want to put the dynamic space. (SBCL is not yet able to relocate
the space elsewhere, but will soon.)
