# thanks Daniel.

# some moments after I post this message, I ran the 'shptree' against my
shapefile and the crashing stopped.
# but one strange thing is that in my application(which is CGI mode) I have
two maps: one is main Map[map]
and the other is a reference map[ref], which is 1/3 of Main map dimensions.
The reference was drawing OK, but
the main map(the bigger) was crashing.
