1) Just to be sure: I assume you mean RAM by "memory", not disk space. 

2) tla itself  doesn't do so much.  A big part  of the job is  done by
   external processes  (diff, patch, ...).  Can you see  which process
   eats so much memory ?

If you give more information, you have more chances to get help ...
