Agreed - there's a bug which is tracking this from Kai.  As far as I'm
aware the failure cases are 32-bit hosts (3GB limit per process) or
64-bit hosts with limited memory.  I suggested that we benchmark with
and without this - if the performance hit is measured in seconds then
we can probably enable it for this recipe out of the box.
