Modelsim-Altera Simulation Error: Memory Allocation Failure

Hello everyone, I am trying to run the gate level simulation for some VHDL code. I could run RTL simulation successfully. But I always get "Memory Allocation Failure" for gate level simulation....

I hope he's not refering the 74 series logic chips. The last time I saw one of those was at university 10 years ago (and on one of my companies' old old boards, about 20 years old). I dont think anyone uses 74 series stuff seriously any more (IIRC, a 74 series chip has about 4 gates on it. Given you have hundreds of thousands of LUTs on modern devices, the number of 74 chips would be silly.)
