How are you running it?
Double clicjk in explorer?
>From within the IDE?
or using

C:\> python foo.py

If the latter try using the -i option (and if you use a lot of 
docstrings -OO)

Otherwise without seeing the code its hard to say, but it doesn't
sound like memory probnlems to me - that should just make it
run slowly in virtual memory.
