On 32-bit platforms, the address space size limits the amount of memory Wireshark can allocate; on all platforms, the amount of swap space (swap partition or partitions, pagefiles/swap files, etc.) limits it. On large files, Wireshark can run out of memory; see KnownBugs/OutOfMemory on the Wireshark Wiki for information on this.

Wireshark crashes showing the following error message "GLib Error**: gmem.c.230: failed to allocate 256 bytes" and then Wireshark is displaying Visual C++ error message. Is this the same problem?

It could be the same problem.
