The memory required by the splitter is roughly proportional to max-nodes multiplied by the number of areas being processed per pass. I see you're setting --max-nodes=4500000, which is rather high. To reduce the memory required you can set --max-areas to something lower than the default of 255. This will reduce the amount of memory required, but at the cost of additional passes over the data.
As I told before, using sun java I don't have memory problems, so I can leave it as is. The number of areas processed is around 50, so in case I need to reduce memory requirements I suppose I would have to set --max-areas<50.
Also, does machine B have a 64 bit VM by any chance? No, it doesn't. This will also increase the memory requirements somewhat, especially if compressed OOPS is disabled/unavailable.
What about the use of --overlap for contour lines? Carlos
