naive question
I have a 100Mb comma-separated file, and R takes several minutes to read it
(via read.table()). This is R 1.9.0 on a linux box with a couple gigabytes of
RAM. I am conjecturing that R is gc-ing, so maybe there is some command-line
arg I can give it to convince it that I have a lot of space, or?!
Thanks!
