It does at least initially give you a bot per region, but if it's a file format that only supports one object (e.g., stl), then it has to keep going and there are many more opportunities for failure. More specific to the memory issue, though, it's working on all regions as "one job" so it has to keep thing around where as it can work on things in smaller chunks if you process region by region.
