Bug Description
I tried to convert a very large book 230 MB from mobi to epub. I am running Windows 7 64bit with 8 GB of memory.
The book was purchase from Mobilibrary. I can up load it if you want, but is is 230,330,916 bytes.
I understand this might just be to big to convert.

MemoryError
calibre is not designed to convert such books. It needs to keep things in
memory to be able to perform all the magic that happens during conversion.
