Good for you.
Did you have a question we can help you with?

Guessing that the question was "why does it crash like that?",
the answer is:

- either it ran out of memory (it is failing to allocate 
  27.5 million of "fxpair"s, which could be a lot of bytes,
  depending on how big each fxpair is), or

- you have corrupted heap.

Since you are apparently on Linux, you can try running your program
under Valgrind.

If it is VG-clean, and isn't supposed to be allocating 27 million
fxpair's, then look for algorithmic errors.
