I have a loop that increases the size of an object after each iteration. When the Windows Task Manager shows "Mem Usage" about 1.8GB, the Rgui.exe process no longer responds. I use: "C:\Program Files\R\rw1080\bin\Rgui.exe" --max-mem-size=4000M --min-vsize=10M --max-vsize=3000M --min-nsize=500k --max-nsize=1000M I have a dual Xeon 2.8GHz processor box with 4GB of memory and

I am hoping someone will be kind enough to have a look at the following piece of code and tell me if there is a way to run lme() so it is a lot faster. The inner loop, j in 1:15000, takes about 2 hrs on my 2.8GHz dual Xeon 4GB RAM machine. The timings I have done show the dominant execution time is in lme. options(contrasts=c("contr.sum", "contr.sum"))
