Description
I am trying to transform an 8GB OBJ file to GLTF. Below is the command used.
`obj2gltf -i outputobj.obj -o building.gltf`
Memory utilization goes up to 10GB in Task manager and throughs the below error. Added `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=8192` in Environment Variables but no luck.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the exact `obj2gltf -i outputobj.obj -o building.gltf` command with the 8GB OBJ and inspect the reported Node heap failure. Compare the behavior with the supplied `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=8192` setting; done means the conversion completes or the limitation and next step are clearly documented.
