Capsule.py limits memory usage to 1 GB

Hi,

Capsule.py is one of the samples in the echonest sample library. I can successfully run the script when I provide around 6 songs. However, more than 6 songs always crashes with "Memory Error". I thought this was a limitation on my dev environment as I only had 8 GB of RAM on my laptop. This is not the case. I have access to a Windows 2008, 4 core, 64 bit, 64 GB RAM server. When running the script on this super server with 8 songs I still get a "Memory Error". Using task manager I noticed that python.exe only consumes around 1 GB of memory before it crashes. I noticed the same behavior on my 8 GB RAM laptop.

This leads me to believe that the issue lies with python and Capsule.py.

Please advise on how I can overcome this limitation.

Thanks! Bobby
