My guess is that with a group of that size, you stand no chance of 
getting an answer out of StructureDescription even with a lot of memory.

That said, send me the generators in a separate e-mail and I'll try it 
out on a machine with 4 GB of RAM.  I might also be able to get you a 
StructureDescription without using that function.
