There are actually two ways to decrease the RAM requirements, both
investigated by Hiroki Sato:

a) The patch for xsltproc to keep entities in RAM only once.
b) A simplified method to generate autolayout.xml.

I think we should apply at least one of those changes soon. Since b) is
completely under our control I would prefer this. Solution a) was
submitted to the xsltproc maintainers, if I remember correctly.

In the long run we will need both changes.
