Whilst I have had no experience of trying to use the feed validator myself, my colleague who has tried to use it found that the particular dataset that we are uploading (which is massive) could not be validated, at least not on his computers. We think, for our data, it requires a lot more memory - but I don't think we have tried it again recently to see if this memory requirement has been reduced since our first failures.

I suspect that this is not the same problem as you have encountered, therefore, but thought it worth posting this in case there is to be a review of the validator software - as it would be good to know what the system requirements are, and therefore to be able to use it routinely to check our data.

Best wishes
