Hi there,
I'm having a problem with as.dist when I tried to convert a numerical
matrix to dist. The data matrix is 10^4 by 10^4. I got the following:
d <- as.dist(dat)
Error: cannot allocate vector of size 762.9Mb
I need convert "dat" to dist because I will use hclust to do some
clustering analysis.
The machine is 2Gb memory 64bit Linux, and I also failed on a 16Gb
memory 64bit Linux. Is there anyway that I can
get around it? Or how large is the limitation on my machine? Thanks in
advance.
Best,
Baoqiang
