Hi,

I am trying to run the bigmemory example provided on the
http://www.bigmemory.org/

The example runs on the "airline data" and generates summary of the csv
files:-

library(bigmemory)
library(biganalytics)
x <- read.big.matrix("2005.csv", type="integer", header=TRUE,
backingfile="airline.bin",
 descriptorfile="airline.desc",
extraCols="Age")
summary(x)


This runs fine for the provided csv for year 1987 (size=121MB). However, for
big files like for year 2005 (size=639MB), it gives following errors:-

Error in filebacked.big.matrix(nrow = nrow, ncol = ncol, type = type,  :
  Problem creating filebacked matrix.

Error: object 'x' not found
Error in summary(x) :
  error in evaluating the argument 'object' in selecting a method for
function 'summary'

Here is the output from running the memory.limit() :-
[1] 2047

Here is the output from running the memory.profile() :-

       NULL      symbol    pairlist     closure environment     promise

Anyone who has previously worked with bigmemory before could throw some
light on it.
Were you able to run  the examples successfully?

Thanks in advance.
