[Rd] "cannot allocate vector" error message (PR#6603)
Full_Name: Alex Loguinov Version: 1.8.1 OS: Windows XP Prof Submission from: (NULL) (24.7.84.58) My R-code is working great but periodically I have error message for the same working code, like this: "Error: cannot allocate vector of size 24 Kb" To fix it I need to exit R and reboot my PC (Dell 530 with dual CPU). What is wrong R 1.8.1(I never had such error messages for the same R code in 1.7.1)?

See ?Memory and the "R for Windows FAQ" how to overcome the problem. Please note that it is *not* a bug in R that it needs some memory to perform calculations ... Uwe Ligges
