Impossible!
I just opened a 4.7GB file to try (a DVD image). No problem!
Did you try "view" (F3) or "edit" (F4)? Use "view".
Then I went and opened a 28 GB file, except that 'mc' is allocated
3070MB,, and I only have 1 GB, so most of it is swap. But it works! You
can try also view in hex mode, it is faster.

So, if I could view a 28 GB file, you certainly can view a 1.5 GB file.
Increase your swap space (don't buy more memory, you only need it once).
