how big is the policy in terms of rules? if it is even close to the size of fedora's there is no chance of it running in under 32 meg.
You'll need a significantly smaller policy to reduce the memory usage. There is no quick answer, we've already picked most of the low hanging fruit (releasing modules earlier, consuming the linked policy while expanding, reducing the size of the type datum, etc).
