Hi,
I have a data of size 981.1MB(1028707715) and I intend to calculate the
length of the data using tapply function in R. I was able to read the data
into R but when I tried to use the factor function, I had an error message
"Error: cannot allocate vector of size 2.0 Gb".
Can anybody tell me what to do? I have tried to increase the size of the
memory but I am not sure if R recognizes it as the error message persists.
Is there any other thing I need to do for R to recognize the memory
increase?


My guess is that this is a 32-bit version of R?
You need some 64-bit OS and 64-bit R or try to decrease the amount/size of objects that are in the same time in your memory.

Best,
Uwe Ligges


Thank you so much for any help.
