IMHO if you can split the file in more than one .org file you'll get a
better experience.
I've been working on machines with less than 8Gb of ram in files that are
bigger than yours ( 1.2Mb org with lots of latex, R and other things )
and haven't got a trouble.
One thing that 've noticed is that, if I start the whole text shown,
manipulating the file is much slower than if I got only the section I'll
work on at that time. You'll probably should give it a try, e.g. opening
only the section you'll work on.
Cheers,
Leslie
