Bob,

In my experience, 25MB, 50MB, 75MB, 130MB, right on up until a crash,
when you use CONTOUR,/CELL_FILL in a PostScript context. I'm sure
someone else could explain it better, but PostScript files have a
raster resolution which is used internally by IDL, which is best
described as "very, very high." I don't know how to determine the
"effective raster resolution" that CONTOUR is using.

When I have to do these plots, I make the contour plot using /
CELL_FILL in the Z buffer, and then place it on the PS image. It would
be nice if we could put some "pixel-size" magic into CONTOUR (like TV
has), but I'm not aware of any solutions along those lines.
