R help - Jan 2011 - runsd {caTools} crashes R 64bit on winxp64bit with a very large vector

Hello

I have a 3.5 million elements numeric vector x. I'm trying to calculate the
rolling std dev of the previous 144 elements.

 

rsd144<-runsd(x, 144, center=0, endrule="NA")

 

this crashes R (ie on the console disappears and the Rgui.exe process is not
there anymore)

 

with smaller vectors, the crash does not occur.

 

regards,

You should report bugs in contributed packages to the maintainer of the 
package.  I'm not sure what package runsd is in.
