(I'm keeping this in comp.unix.programmer and comp.lang.c for now, since
it still seems relevant to both.  Feel free to set followups if that
changes.)

Why?  If a program finds it needs more memory, it can always call
malloc() again, or realloc() to increase the size of an existing block.
Can you give an example where it makes sense to allocate a large block
of memory and not use it (or use only a small initial portion of it)?
