Hi there,

I have a rather large data set and perform the following cox model:


test1 <- list(tstart,tstop,death1,chemo1,radio1,horm1)
out1<-coxph( Surv(tstart,tstop, death1) ~ 
chemo1+chemo1:log(tstop+1)+horm1+horm1:log(tstop+1)+age1+grade1+grade1:log(tstop+1)+positive1+positive1:log(tstop+1)+size1+size1:log(tstop+1),
 test1) 
out1

Up to here everything works fine (with each covariate having a length of 289205)
Now I want to see a specific profile of the above model so I ask for:

x11()
profilbig2=(survfit(out1,newdata=data.frame(chemo1=rep(0,length(chemo1)),horm1=rep(0,length(chemo1)),age1=rep(mean(age1),length(chemo1)),grade1=rep(0,length(chemo1)),positive1=rep(1,length(chemo1)),size1=rep(mean(size1),length(chemo1))  
 )))
plot(profilbig2,col="blue")

and I get the following error:

Error: cannot allocate vector of size 1.5 Gb
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In vector("double", length) :
  Reached total allocation of 1535Mb: see help(memory.size)
2: In vector("double", length) :
  Reached total allocation of 1535Mb: see help(memory.size)
3: In vector("double", length) :
  Reached total allocation of 1535Mb: see help(memory.size)
4: In vector("double", length) :
  Reached total allocation of 1535Mb: see help(memory.size)


I am wondering why is that happening since I manage to fit the model. Shouldn't 
the memory problem pop up earlier when I was fitting the model? So now I fit 
the model but still cannot study a ceratin profile?? Can anyone suggest 
something? I am not an advanced user of R, do I type something wrong or can I 
do something more clever to see a profile of a hypothetical subject?

Thanx in advance for any answers..
(2 GB RAM).

P.S. I noticed in the help the "--max-mem-size" but I am not quite sure how to 
use it..

Leo.
