Problem: Saxon couldn't reserve enough memory.

Solution: Turn off Outlook, Acrobat and unnecessary tabs in your browser before executing lido or saxon. Your computer seems to need at least physically 8GB memory (on Windows).

Background: Currently, I reserve about 1,4GB memory when I call saxon (see -Xmx1450m option).
