 Severity:  normal          |    Keywords:  import MT

 I imagine my patch is ill-advisable so open to other recommendations. This
 worked on a client platform where the memory_limit was set in php.ini to
 be 12M, far smaller than was needed to do an MT import. This patch
 temporarily adjusts the memory_limit to 50M which I'd think would be big
 enough for just about anyone.

 A better solution might be to check file size against memory allocation
 required and provide a more user-friendly error or prompt to split the MT
 file into two.
