I've recently installed a couple high definition texture packs. One is 128 and the other is 256.
After playing a while with either, my game will go to a background screen with text that says Minecraft has run out of memory and that I should download the game if I'm playing from the browser.
Thing is, my computer has 4gb or very fast memory and I'm using Win7 64bits... so, what gives?
EDIT: I did patch the game with MC Patcher and checked the boxes for HD textures and stuff.
My mods are aether, and a couple other minor mods. Haven't tried with a modless install, but I don't see how that could affect it though...
In the patcher, there is a tab that says "Options" or something similar. Change the Java heap size to whatever you want. I would recommend at least 2048.

There's an easy fix for this if you're running Widows (7) 64 bit.
It's likely you have the boom-boom 32 bit version installed, so first uninstall java.
After that step, use Internet Explorer to go back to the java website and be sure to download the 64 bit version. It's imperative that you use internet explorer to do this because other browsers have this issue where they don't let you download the 64 bit version of java.
Install the 64 bit Java.
Restart.
Profit?

In MC patcher?
Yes in MC patcher. His instructions would make it so you have minecraft 2GB of RAM. And since you have 4GB as you say it will be no big deal.
