So I am trying to create a tool path for an area 23"x65" with some 3D elements and I get the out of memory error. This is on my CAD machine Win7 x64.
When the error/failure occurs I have 12G physical mem available +-100M. It seems that when Aspire uses >4G you are SOL. 32bit apps can only address 4G. Kind of a headache. Maybe I am the only one who cares.
I request that Aspire be made 64bit so it can address more than 4G of ram in a process. On the plus side when creating it does seem to engage all 8 CPU cores either deliberately or through some OS magic.
In the attached image the toolpath is for the inside of the extruded 'frame' 1/8 tapered @ 4%
Lurkers: The workaround is to split the area into smaller sections. Lame I know but at least you are up and running again.

Just figured out that Aspire is only 32bit
