The size of that bitmap is killing your performance. As Gary suggested, use a
smaller bitmaps until the final rener.Your face count isn't taking nearly as
much RAM as that bitmap is. Also remember that color depth does not influence
RAM requirements – you're always paying 3 bytes per pixel (so switiching to
greyscale doesn't help, but scaling it down to quarter or eighth size will save
an apreciable amount of RAM).
