(If it's not in RAM.) You're running out of arc because you have too much in it. Press [2nd] + [+] and go to Memory Management. Then delete some stuff you don't want. That's basically the whole thing in a nutshell.
Post again if you're still confused.

When it runs out, you might nto be able to garbage collect (so no writing to archive), and you can't fit anything in side the archive. |
