some people say me that also bittorrent and other client have the same problem! so i think it isn't an amule problem but we need more evidence ...

I have the same problem with amule only. Bittorent clients work perfectly.

For a temporary fix you could create a separate user to run amule, and set memory limits in /etc/security/limits.conf for that user. 'man 5 limits.conf' explains it good.
