If you are getting a MemoryError your machine does not have sufficient ram to
process the data. :-/ We know it takes as much as 4GB for some feeds. I wish I
knew an easy way to reduce the memory requirements. How big is yours in terms
of uncompressed bytes and number of lines in the big files?
feedvalidator option -o CONSOLE uses less ram when there are a large number of
errors by printing them to the console instead of making a html file. See

The support team uses Windows XP with 4 GB of RAM. The transit tools work fine
on Macs & Linux with less then 4 GB of RAM. I think the bug should be
addressed, because the support team looses a lot of time applying work-arounds
for our partners. As you can see from this page
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa366778(v=vs.85).aspx) processes in
user space on Windows XP 32 bit have a hard limit of 2GB for memory use. Adding
RAM to a Windows box is not going to make any difference. I think this bug
cannot be classified as "Won't fix" because 1) it is fixable 2) it is a major
bug that gets reported all the time by the technical support team and by the
sales managers who visit our partners.
