Running out of memory - MATLAB complains that ROS bag file is too large

When I try to load ROS bag file the smaller files work fine, however, for larger files, MATLAB errors out complaining running out of memory. Any trick/ workaround to make this work?

The issue could be due to limited Java Heap space available. As a workaround, consider increasing the Java Heap memory available for MATLAB. To do the same, please refer to the link below:

Eventually I have to work on a rosbag file of 80GB.

What would be the max size of rosbag file that I can work on MATLAB?
