Can R handle medium and large size data sets?
...one to make R capable of handling data. Is there sth inherent in the structure of R that makes it impossible to work with say 100 000observations and more? If it is so, is there any hope that R can be fixed in the future? My experience is rather limited---I tried to load a Stata data set of about 150000observations(which Stata handles instantly) using the library "foreign". After half an hour R was still "thinking" so I stopped the attempts. Thank you in advance, Gueorgui Kolev Department of Economics and Business Universitat Pompeu Fabra
