mmap the node table in array index form to disk, that will work because 
of hole allocation, that will result in a temporary file of around 5GB 
allocated space, now for any way you encounter you can do { node[2*nd] 
node[2*nd + 1] }. And get the line string upon any nd event.

Does anyone have any timings on importing the current planet.osm in 
PostgreSQL with any tool available? Using lets say 8GB of ram and 
'typical' disk?
