Export to PDF problem.

I have a report that is to be exported to PDF when it is run. However, this report can have about 180 pages if certain combinations of parameters are supplied (Yes I know, but the spec from the client wants it to show so much data). Now, when the report is this big and they try to export it to PDF, ReportServer will either just hang or crash with an error without even creating the PDF. The report consists of about 4 subreports, one of which calls subreports of its own, which then calls its own subreports (it goes on with this for about 5 levels worth of data). I think this could be a limitation of SSRS, but does anyone maybe know of a way around it? The other developers seem to think it would be a solution to re-design the report from scratch without all the sub-reports, but this would take at least a week and the client needs it back ASAP.

Thanks in advance.
