This is not a free memory problem.
The error
free(): invalid pointer: 0xf7758250
represents the code calling the free() command to free previously allocated memory and the pointer stored in a memory variable points to memory that doesn't not exist, has already been freed or was not allocated by your application.
Basically a bug with many potential causes.
Since it appears to be Oracle apps, unless this is custom code I would open a support case with Oracle. If it is a custom app then troubleshooting will be a little harder but not impossible.

All,
e-business 12.1.2 env
OS: Oracle Linux Server release 6.6
Linux xyz 2.6.32-300.32.3.el6uek.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Sep 27 10:39:05 PDT 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
To address long garbage collection times and outofmemoryerrors trying to increase heapsize for JVM
There is 13GB free on the box before running below command:

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_07-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 10.0-b23, mixed mode)
Even if we increase by 1M after this limit it throws errors:
java -server -verbose:gc -Xmx2048M -Xms2048M -XX:MaxPermSize=685M -version Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not reserve enough space for object heap *** glibc detected *** /app/of1_dev/r12/apps/tech_st/10.1.3/appsutil/jdk/bin/java: free(): invalid pointer: 0xf7758250 ***
wondering why it is failing when there is free RAM available.
Thanks your your time.
Regards,
Sanjeev.
