Ahhhmmm ... my laptop has 2 GiB and is 2 years old. High performance computing nowadays certainly starts at bit more higher than 3 GiB, I think :-) BTW, I quickly looked at the numbers you posted. 60k contigs with 89 megabases as backbone will need quite some memory just for the contigs, my guess is around 8 to 10 GiB just for those.
