The Jasper library goes kaput, even when built as a 64-bit 
application.  It must contain arbitrary 32-bit limits.  Other 
libraries exist but they have less pleasant usage licenses.

I am trying another tool now.  It has been crunching for quite a while 
now and is consuming 10GB of memory for one of the "smaller" images. 
It seems that the post-production industry should not jump to these 
resolutions yet. :-)
