If all that happens is a hang you're lucky - in some circumstances running out of disk space (for example in resources disk or scratch disk) can be fatal.

Solaris is notorious for configuring a tiny /tmp - you should try to use a different area for temporary files (see TEMP environment variable and UVTEMP configuration variable) or make the /tmp file system substantially larger.
