You could run with only one MPI rank but with threading to make use of
the other processors.  That would free a lot of space, but might
currently be less efficient CPU-wise depending on your application and

You may need to use the SVN head; I forget how recent the latest
ParallelMesh development was, but it's quite possible that it wasn't
working yet in 0.7.1.
