Hi,

I got a stack overflow error when training a glm model with a very long
formula.


I just tried with a formula of length 1000. How long was yours?
Which version of R? Where is the repdroducible example?


We have a glm formula with 76251 terms, the text of the formula is about
150K, we are using R 2.14.2

You would need do compile your own copy of R and increase the stack size, on the slow machines around here, it takes even hours just to parse the formula.

Aynway, I canmnot believe you have a sufficient number of observations in the end:

You need at least 76252 obs and that means the design matrix needs > 46 Gbyte! Hence a sensible calculation is not really possible unless you have really big machines around.

Best,
