IndexError while using Gensim package for LDA Topic Modelling

Question

I have a total of 54892 documents which have 360331 unique tokens. The length of the dictionary is 88.

mm = corpora.MmCorpus('PRC.mm')
dictionary = corpora.Dictionary('PRC.dict')
lda = gensim.models.ldamodel.LdaModel(corpus=mm, id2word=dictionary, num_topics=50, update_every=0, chunksize=19188, passes=650)

Whenever I run this script I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\modelDeTopics.py", line 19, in <module>
lda = gensim.models.ldamodel.LdaModel(corpus=mm, id2word=dictionary, num_topics=50, update_every=0, chunksize=19188, passes=650)

IndexError: index 8 is out of bounds for axis 1 with size 8

I check on the internet, it is mentioned that i might be related to the RAM the computer has. I am using Windows 7 32-bit with 4 GB RAM. What change should I make in the script?

Please help!

Looks like a problem with your dictionary . 88 unique words doesn't sound reasonable.

Posting a full log would reveal more.
