I disagree -- 52kB should cause no problem for the read command. I've
imported multiple megabytes in a single read without problems.

I just opened SE 1.8.3 and tried reading a 250kB file, and got a memory
error. I quit, upped SE's memory partition from the default 1500 to 2500,
tried again, and it worked fine.

I upped it then to 6000 and tried a 1MB file, reading four times into
different variables. It gave an error on the third read.
