I've tried at run it with 4GB of ram, and still got out of memory exception.

That depends on how many addresses are stored in the database.
I strongly suggest to use the --lowmem option. It uses on disk database rather then in RAM dictionary, it is slower but tackles memory issues. It takes about 1 hour to process current BTC blockchain on my 2ghz 6Gb ntb (with oldish ssd).
Please let me know if it resolved your problem.
