Please note its a crosstab report

Why? What possible use is a 10,000 row or a 65,000 row crosstab? Who is going to look at it and be able to deduce anything remotely useful? It's not a report, it's a data dump. If you want to dump data out for use in other analysis tools, use the right tool for the job, which in this case would be an ETL tool.

Otherwise, look deeper into the requirement and deliver the final summarised analysis in Cognos rather than another tool.

Meep!
