Segmentation Fault Duing Parsing


I am trying to render a polymer that has 250k atoms.  I wrote a script 
to convert the xyz file into pov code.  There are around 1 million 
lines.  I get a segmentation fault during parsing.  Is there a way to 
fix this or am I just trying to render to many lines?
Also if anyone has any suggesting on other posible programs that could 
animate large xyz files.

I am doing my rendering on a unix cluster.
dual 2.4 mhz 2gigs ram.

File size is not much. Details depend what your atoms were. Can you reproduce
this on the same machine a few times and it happens always after the same
amount of time ? Can you reproduce it on other machine ? Can you experiment
with your scene and truncate it about some part and seg fault still happen ?
Can you post your file somewhere so others could verify your problem and help
you ?
