Thanks for reply, I'll try VSIMalloc().
But can you explain the goal of check if( long(nSize) < 0 ) {...} in
CPLMalloc()? Cast size_t to long leads to implicit result.

Hello!
Take a look on the following code:
*...
size_t w = 1, h = 5000, d = 150;
size_t sz = w * h * d * sizeof(float); // ~27.94 Gb
float *volume = (float*)CPLMalloc(sz);
...*
In this case GDAL throws error in runtime: "ERROR 1: CPLMalloc(-664771072):
Silly size requested."
But I think that
