Actually Batik can render 2800x2800 in a lot less memory but you will have to go below the ImageTranscoder (or rewrite the ImageTranscoder to not use a BufferedImage). You will also need to pick a format that streams, currently the only codec we include that can stream (although it may not in some cases) is the Tiff codec. The PNG codec (due to a desire to support interlaced PNG) does not even though PNG is capable of streaming.
