Cannot allocate large vectors (running out of memory?)
Hi. As shown in the simplified example below, I'm having trouble allocating memory for large vectors, even though it would appear that there is more than enough memory available. That is, even with a memory limit of 1500 MB, R 2.6.1 (Win) will allocate memory for a first vector of 285 MB, but not for a second vector of the same size. Forcing garbage collection does not seem

Suggestion for memory optimization and as.double() with friends
Hi, when doing as.double() on an object that is already a double, the object seems to be copied internally, doubling the memory requirement. See example below. Same for as.character() etc. Is this intended? Example: % R --vanilla > x <- double(1e7) > gc() used (Mb) gc trigger (Mb) max used (Mb) Ncells 234019 6.3 467875 12.5 350000 9.4 Vcells 10103774 77.1

Large database help
Hello all. I have a large .txt file whose variables are fixed-columns, ie, variable V1 goes from columns 1 to 7, V2 from 8 to 23 etc. This is a 60GB file with 90 variables and 60 million observations. I'm working with a Pentium 4, 1GB RAM, Windows XP Pro. I tried the following code just to see if I could work with 2 variables but it seems not possible: R : Copyright 2005, The R Foundation

The fastest way to select and execute a few selected functions inside a function
Dear useRs? I have the following problem! I have a function that calls one or more functions, depending on the input parameters. I am searching for the fastest way to select and execute the selected functions and return their results in a list. The number of possible functions is 10, however usually only 2 are selected (although sometimes more, even all). For examples, if I have function

maximizing available memory under windows XP
I have always been using ebitbin to set the 3GB switch in the windows binary, but version 2.2.1 has this set as default (which I verified using dumpbin). However, when I generate junk data to fill up my memory and read the memory usage using gc(), it seems that I am not getting as good results with 2.2.1 patched as I was with 2.2.0 after I edited the header. Under R 2.2.0 I was able to use over

Need for garbage collection after creating object
Hello, After experiencing some difficulties with large arrays, I was surprised to see the apparent need for class to gc() after creating fairly large arrays. For example, calling a<-array(2, dim=c(10,10,10,10,10,100)) makes the memory usage of a fresh session of R jump from 13.8 Mb to 166.4 Mb. A call to gc() brought it down to 90.8 Mb, > gc() used (Mb) gc trigger (Mb)

No. But it has not been posted either. You got that message because you sent your message to the wrong address. You should have sent it to r-help at r-project.org You had probably sent it to r-help-request at r-project.org which would have had the effect that the server would have tried to interpret the contents of you message as commands (e.g. to unsubscribe, change your subscription

Maptools runs out of memory installing the help files for spCbind-methods
Hi, I'd be grateful for help with the following:- Running R version 2.9.2 (2009-08-24) on Gentoo Linux, on an x86 PC. I am trying to install maptools, (via CRAN from maptools_0.7-29.tar.gz'), for the first time. All runs smoothly until the installation gets to "*** installing help indices" for spCbind-methods, about two thirds of the way through the help files, at which point

Large discrepancies in the same object being saved to .RData
Hi developers, After some investigation I have found there can be large discrepancies in the same object being saved as an external "xx.RData" file. The immediate repercussion of this is the possible increased size of your .RData workspace for no apparent reason. The function and its three scenarios below highlight these discrepancies. Note that the object being returned is exactly

.Call and to reclaim the memory by allocVector
Hi, I am not sure if this is a bug and I apologize if it is something I didn't read carefully in the R extension manual. My initial search on the R help and R devel list archive didn't find useful information. I am using .Call (as written in the R extension manual) for the C code and have found that the .Call didn't release the memory claimed by allocVector. Even after applying
