CS5 "Not enough scratch memory available" error when there's plenty of it.

Illustrator CS5 throws this error:

 

---------------------------
Adobe Save For Web AI Error
---------------------------
Could not complete this operation. There is not enough scratch memory available.
---------------------------
OK

when trying to save for web. The content has a lot of linked images, around 1000x1000 px each, used with clipping masks, drop shadows and glows at 300dpi.

 

I realize that this might be hard to flatten for JPEG and I'd be fine with long processing times (which I get) but out of memory?.. Here's my config:

 

Illustrator CS5

Windows 7 x64 Ultimate

Intel Core i7 920

6GB RAM

Total pagefile size: 24GB.

Primary scratch disk - 155GB free.

Secondary scratch disk - 544GB free.

 

Those are all gigabytes, not megabytes, no mistake. There's NO WAY that there's not enough scratch memory available.

 

And this is how the process looks:

Physical memory usage at this point is 62%, Commit charge - 15%.

 

Currently, I can work around this by making a screenshot of "Original" tab in Save for Web dialogue when it's there - because sometimes it's just a pink-filled window.

 

So, Adobe, any suggestions, please?
