Dear all, I am using ubuntu linux 32 with 4 Gb. I am running a very small script and I always got the same error message: CAN NOT ALLOCATE A VECTOR OF SIZE 231.8 Mb.
I have reading carefully the instruction in ?Memory. Using the function gc() I got very low numbers of memory (please sea below). I know that it has been posted several times at r-help (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/06/7565.html#7627qlink2). However I did not find yet the solution to improve my memory issue in Linux. Somebody cold please give some instruction how to improve my memory under linux? > gc() used (Mb) gc trigger (Mb) max used (Mb) Ncells 170934 4.6 350000 9.4 350000 9.4 Vcells 195920 1.5 786432 6.0 781384 6.0 INCREASING THE R MEMORY FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTION IN ?Memory I started R with: R --min-vsize=10M --max-vsize=4G --min-nsize=500k --max-nsize=900M > gc() used (Mb) gc trigger (Mb) limit (Mb) max used (Mb) Ncells 130433 3.5 500000 13.4 25200 500000 13.4 Vcells 81138 0.7 1310720 10.0 NA 499143 3.9 It increased but not so much! Please, please let me know. I have read all r-help about this matter, but not solution. Thanks for your attention! Ricardo [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
