Hello Michael ,
Damn, pressed "send" accidentally.
Well... returning to my previous post....

u have 1GB free, but your memory is highly fragmented. Albeit the GC can
mitigate this, moving "managed" block a little, the LOH part of memory is
"freezed" - FW can't defragment in at all.
LOH is where the object over 85kb locates.
So, relating to the some intro above seems that you allocated the objects
which the size is over the 85kb and FW can't find the free 16/32MB segment
block in LOH to put your object.
The solution of this to review your code, find where you locate big sized
object at once and try to divide them into small blocks, to avoid them being
put to LOH
