In both cases it's running out of memory (which doesn't surprise me too much
given the size of the capture file).  Was your system running low on memory
when it crashed?

Is this a 32- or 64-bit process?  (Running 'file' on the wireshark executable
should tell you.)

Oh, and just since it hasn't been mentioned yet in this bug, be sure to see:
