. . . so few crunch it:

Lots of boxes physically can't. . . .

Well ... so add more RAM, that is the easiest way. Alternatively you could install VMWare and allocate more virtual memory per box than is actually (physically) installed. But that makes the machine very slow and is performing contortions, if I may say so.
I would love to see HCF1 protein folding and interaction simulations to help my little boy... someday.
