[issue5438] test_bigmem.test_from_2G_generator uses more memory than expected

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower added the comment:

Just for fun, I attached the memory usage graph from the Windows run. You can see the long pauses in the middle for the two changed tests, and the graph only goes up to 57GB despite the limit being set at 440GB.
