similar to: How do you expand memory capability (Was: R crashes in Windows ME)

Dear all, I don't get it: First of all, the help doesn't say what are the memory limits of R. Say, what's the max heap size for instance ???? Secondly, I invoke R with the following commands each time: rgui --vsize 30M --nsize 1000K rgui --vsize 30M --nsize 2000K rgui --vsize 30M --nsize 3000K rgui --vsize 30M --nsize 4000K I try to open a matrix 8000x8000 by issuing

Dear sir, I am using R in windows. I want to extend R Memory size. I use the following command, but unfortunately it doesn't work. -- vsize=15M --nsize=1000K Your help is appreciated.

Hi, I have recently installed R-1.2.2 for windows (16MB RAM, P-166) and I getting the following message after processing my data (6 variables and 1200 observations): >Error: cannot allocate vector of size 4 Kb >In addition: Warning message: >Reached total allocation of 15Mb: see help(memory.size) Then, the program close. With the last version, 1.1.1 (I think) I didn't have this

I am trying to translate code from S-PLUS to R and R really struggles! After starting R with the foll. R --vsize 50M --nsize 6M --no-restore on a 400 MHz Pentium with 192 MB of memory running Linux (RH 6.2), I run a function that essentially picks up an external dataset with 2121 rows and 30 columns and builds a lm() object and also runs step() ... the step() takes forever to run...(takes very

I'm sure this question is answered in the help file, but likely I'm not reading it corrected. Running windows version 1.00.0, loading a table (35K rows by 10 columns) from Excel using the read.table command I receive the following message. Error: cons memory (350000 cells) exhausted See "help(Memory)" on how to increase the number of cons cells. >From reading the

Hi everyone, I have a problem that some people may have already encountered but i did not find the solution yet. As I use R to simulate several arrays of data, my workspace is now 35Mb big and I cannot launch R with it. An "xdr real data read error occured" and R tells me to delete .RData or increase memory. I WON'T delete this file and changing the max-nsize to 40600k did not

Sorry, but I lost this thread, so I sending this as a new message. This is really a follow-up to a post from a couple days ago saying that fisher.test from the ctest library crashed on the following data set: > T [,1] [,2] [1,] 2 1 [2,] 2 1 [3,] 4 0 [4,] 8 0 [5,] 6 0 [6,] 0 0 [7,] 1 0 [8,] 1 1 [9,] 7 1 [10,] 8 2 [11,]

Dear R users, I have noticed that my R startup is extremely slow. It takes almost 3 minutes from "double-click" to R prompt. I have been running R-0.64.1 till recently and it took about 30 sec. I still have access to R-0.64.1. When I started it up, it took about 25 sec. Can anyone tell me if this is a bug in R or a problem with my machine? Note: This is after bootup with R being the

Hello- While I was reading a tutorial book for R (actually, for S-Plus:Brian S. Everitt. A Handbook of Statistical Analysis using S-PLUS. Chapman & Hall, London, 1994) I tried to execute this simple exercise: > x <- -c(1,2,3,4,5,6) > X <- -c(10,11,12,100,-5,-6) >x+X [1] -11, -13, -15, -104, 0, 0 As you can see, the added vectors resulted in

I am a new R user and so I thought I could start with "Using R for Introductory statistics" by Verzani. In order to use some of the functions and datasets I have to install the simpleR package which is is now inside the UsingR package. I did so using >install.packages("UsingR"). However, the functions such as "simple.freqpoly.R" do not work. I also tried to

I am trying to use R to cluster 7129 samples, my data set is a 7129 x 38 matrix, when I trying to get the distance matrix using function dist( ), the memory exhausted, and I tried to set the memory when I run R by R --vsize=250M --nsize=1000k no matter what I set for vsize the result is the same, it says: Error: heap memory (256000kb) exhausted [need 198498Kb more]

Having found the online version of SimpleR, I wanted to to download the respective data: "The data sets for these notes are available from the CSI math department (http://www.math.csi.cuny.edu/Statistics/R/simpleR) and must be installed prior to this." There it says: "The simpleR package is now inside the UsingR package available from CRAN. In the Windows GUI, this may be

I have a dataset that's a few hundred thousand rows from a database (read in via dbreadTable). The database is like: > str(measures) `data.frame': 609363 obs. of 5 variables: $ vih.id : int 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... $ vi.id : int 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... $ vih.value: chr "0" "1989" "0" "N/A" ... $ vih.date : chr

I'm using Verzani's "Using R for Introductory Statistics" to teach a Research Methods in Psych course, and it recommends simple.median.test() for sign tests, which is in the Simple package--but nowhere I can find has ever heard of the Simple package! Anybody ever heard of this function or this package? cheers, Krysta ---------------------------- Krysta Chauncey, Ph.D.

Hi- Is there a quick way to plot a Pareto diagram? I couldn't find one. I'm being forced to do some pretty weird stuff, with awk and all, to extract data in order to plot the frequency of qualitative data from a larger set. Perhaps it's just my GNUrance. I mean, one day, if I have time, I might even write a generic Perl script, but right now, it doesn't look too good on the

Dear R-ers, somehow it is not possible to increase nsize to more than 20000k. When I specify e.g. > R --vsize=10M --nsize=21000K the result is: free total (Mb) Ncells 99658 350000 6.7 Vcells 1219173 1310720 10.0 Maybe I have overlooked s.th....
