I can imagine !
A 75 MB bitmap would translate to 300 MB of Euphoria 'sequence' just for the
pixel data !
Four bytes/byte... with a *lot* of disk swapping, no doubt.
The "Remove Colors" option is, in any case,  the slowest part of the program,
and almost useless for bitmaps of more
than about 32 KB, since a 256 color palette is only 1 KB to start with.
