Oops, I missed that you only have 4GB of memory... but since R is apparently capable of using almost 10GB, either you actually have more RAM, or the system is swapping some data to disk. Increasing memory use in R might still help, but also may lead to a situation where the system waits forever for data to be swapped to and from the disk.
