Dear List members,
I would like to load R objects saved as RData file but ran into the problem
that these objects are too large for my RAM ('Can not allocate vactor of size
XX...'). Switching to a Linux machine is no option, neither is raising the
memory limit.
I am now wondering whether it is possible to load only specific single objects
saved in these *.RData files into the workspace. As these objects usually are
multidimensional arrays, ideally I would be able to load only specific
dimensions of these arrays. IS there any possibility to do such in R?
I know that NCDF files (and the RNetCDF package) provides possibilities to only
read specific parts of the data into the memory, but I switching to this format
would involve a lot of hassle so I would prefer to stay with something as
convenient as save() and load() without switching to non R file formats.
Thanks for any suggestions
Jannis
