Do you have enough memory installed to load it completely?

I do have a big box with lots of memory.

I copied the part I want to print and added 12 pieces to the print bed.  Sliced up as usual (took very long 2+ hrs) and saved to the thumbdrive.  When I attempt to load this Gcode file on the Linux box it "locks up".  By locks up I still have mouse pointer control but no clicks.  If left sitting long enough eventually the OS does a memory dump (I think) and reboots.  The weird thing is that the Gcode is loaded into the editor and you can see it before it freezes.

I have tried saving this file to the linux desktop and attempted loading it many different ways but the end result is the same.  Any ideas?
