Assuming the program in question is using recursive descent/parsing techniques, it may not be a total RAM issue or even RAM available to the JVM, but instead a single thread stack size issue. Each recursive call pushes a new frame on the stack with return info and local variables. If that is the case, increasing the stack size (the Xss) may be needed.

This is just a guess, but given the OP has 64gb of ram and is still running into trouble, this may in fact be the cause.
