So more and more memory keeps being allocated (reserved by CLOD) and as a result the OS has less and less memory to work with, until it can no longer function and the process crashes.

No that's not what happens in this case. CloD crashes, when it reaches the 4Gig barrier for 32bit apps. It asks for more ram -> the the operating system denies it -> crash.
Doesn't matter if you have 6, 8, 16 or 32 Gigs of ram installed. CloD can use only 4 Gig of it.
