the setup is fine, its the toolpath itself is where your issues are.  on large 3d adaptive paths, and when i mean large i mean tool to workpiece ratios, it helps to setup up boundaries to chop the path up in a few sections.  you can also change the top heights reduce where its look for material to cut.  another trick i've learned is in subsequent tool paths, use a decreasing tolerance with an increasing stock to leave as well as playing with the rest machining options to reduce redundant cutting and air cutting.  i've attached what i got to work as a start.  you can really blow the tolerance, stepover, and stepdowns out to get a path work and dialed in and then decrease them once you get it working how you like.
