I think 16m should be enough in most cases..

Would like to see the script. Try to avoid reading large files in once
file() file_get_contents0.
Use fopen en fgets. I work with txt files over 40 m and hardly get 1 m
of memory usage.

You could also try to run the program with the unix nice command. Just
don't think
increasing is a solution. What if you get a 300 m csv file? Well just my
2 cents.
