In case anyone is curious, it uses about 60GB to run it with 400 target parcels. Not too bad.

Is there a matrix or output where I can constrain this so that I have this information my seed parcel to each target parcel? In essence, what I want is a matrix, where the first column is a voxel coordinate, second is one of my target parcels (there are 400), and third is the number of tracts that goe from my seed parcel to that target parcel through that voxel from the first column.
