Dear All, I am currently using R in Windows PC with a 2 GB of RAM. Some pretty large datasets are expected soon, perhaps in an order of several GB. I am facing a similar situation like Ralph, either to get a new PC with a bigger RAM or else. I am just wondering if R is getting faster in other systems like UNIX or Linux. Any suggestions are appreciated. Regards, Jin

Dear Prof Ripley and Don, Thank you all for your kind reply. The UNIX system we have is Sparc Solaris v8 (a 64bit version). The Precompiled binary distributions of the base system and contributed packages are only available for Linux, MacOS X and Windows. The only thing available for UNIX seems Source Code for all Platforms. Could you please guide me to the "Prebuilt versions of R are

Dear R-Users, I am currently looking for a way to test the equality of two correlations that are related in a very special way. Let me describe the situation with an example. - There are 100 respondents, and there are 2 points in time, t=1 and t=2. - For each of the respondents and at each of the time points, I have information on 10 X-variables and on 10 Y-variables. - Based on this

Hi, I've got an 'interesting' problem with a dovecot 0.99.10.4 setup on NetBSD/i386 1.6ZK. dovecot is serving imap only at the moment, using mbox format mailboxes. '/etc/dovecot.conf' is pretty vanilla - among the modified settings, mail_read_mmaped = yes maildir_check_content_changes = yes mbox_lock = fcntl could be relevant. Anyway - from time to time when I move a

Dear R-Users, I am working on an Hierarchical Bayes model and tried to replace the inner for-loop (which loops over a list with n.observations elements) with truely vectorized code (where I calculated everything based on ONE dataset over all respondents). However, when comparing the performance of the two alternatives, I found out that the code with the for-loop actually was faster! In order to

Hi, In a second try I will ask this list to give me some useful pointers. Linear lists, as described e.g. by N.Wirth in "Algorithms and Data Structures", seem not to be implemented in S/R, although in lisp we have cons, car, cdr. Nevertheless I want to implement an algorithm using such linear lists, porting a trusted program to R (S). I need: (from Modula/Oberon) pSC* = POINTER TO

Hi, I'm currently trying to connect an Aastra 57i to our Asterisk Server. The strange thing is, that altough I have definitely entered the correct IP address of the server, the phone doesn't even attempt to register.

Samba 3.3.3 I've seen some relevant posts, but no answers. Users on XP32 boxes will see duplicating directories inside of each other when accessing a samba share through dfs. Not sure how to recreate, but it happens regularly. Problem does not occur when accessing share directly. Performance does not seem affected. A reboot of XP will resolve the issue. Thanks. djm

Dear R-users, I am working on a problem that I am currently not able to solve efficiently. It is about multiplying one column of a matrix with only a certain number of rows of another matrix. Let me illustrate my problem with an example: n.obs = 800 n.rowsperobs = 300 n.param = 23 Designmat = matrix(rnorm(n.obs*n.rowsperobs*n.param),ncol=n.param) Betamat =

I just received a flood of e-mails from the list, over 200 messages, with dates going back to July 2006. They all appear to be legitimate messages based on the header info and the body. Since I only joined the list a month ago, I doubt it's me. Is there something wrong with mailman? Or has someone contracted a virus and is spewing stuff out on the list? Gus

Hello Recently I've been happily experimenting with syslinux, replacing grub and my old bootmanager. All works beautifully, but I have one question - in case of .bss bootsectors - what exactly and under what circumstances is patched in ? With syslinux used as main bootmanager - bootsectors from xp64, xp32 and [pre-syslinux] msdos 7.1 (98se) work perfectly fine when chainloaded natively as

x64 SMP Vista HVM guest uses HPET as the main system timer, and it uses physical destination mode with broadcast to deliver the interrupts generated by HPET. In current code, timer interrupts are injected only to VCPU0 in vioapic.c, but this doesn''t satisfy x64 SMP Vista -- when it boots, it complains "a clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated

Hello everyone, First time on this list, because I can't seem to find anything about my problem. I hope someone here will be able to help me. I have a file and print server running an old Ubuntu 7.04 x86 and Samba 3.0.2.4 that came with it. (I tried upgrading samba once, but it kept crashing, so I went back to this default version, because it works very well.) The problem is, as the title

Hi syslinux list, Some months ago, hpa was kind enough to help me troubleshoot booting Extlinux in a system with the following particulars: * Windows Vista x64 bootloader in the MBR and Vista installed in /dev/sda1 * Extlinux 3.72 installed in the first sector of /dev/sda2 and Foresight Linux installed in /dev/sda2 (at the time I tried, 3.72 was the default bootloader in Foresight) The problem
