ImageJ-MATLAB's `IJM.show` freezes when opening an image of 2GB size

I'm using ImageJ-MATLAB's IJM.show(name) to open an array of 2GB as an image in ImageJ, and everytime I end up crashing MATLAB.

java.lang.Runtime.getRuntime.maxMemory returns roughly 23 GB, because I've edited C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2018a\bin\win64\java.opts to increase Java heap size.

It appears to me that the memory is big enough to handle this image.

>> memory
Maximum possible array:       44594 MB (4.676e+10 bytes) *
Memory available for all arrays:       44594 MB (4.676e+10 bytes) *
Memory used by MATLAB:        2821 MB (2.958e+09 bytes)
Physical Memory (RAM):       32673 MB (3.426e+10 bytes)

*  Limited by System Memory (physical + swap file) available.
