Re: [Rd] tempdir() may be deleted during long-running R session

Dirk, Your message felt a bit antagonistic to me, or maybe I'm not understanding what you're trying to say. We all seem to agree that different configurations exist, and that some Linux distributions are configured to delete files in /tmp/ after a certain amount of time (seems to be 10 days for Ar

Re: [Rd] Crash after (wrongly) applying product operator on object from LIMMA package

Hi Hilmar, weird. The memory problem seems be due to recursion (my R, version 3.3.3, says: Error: evaluation nested too deeply: infinite recursion / options(expressions=)?, just write traceback() to see how it happens), but why does it segfault with xlsx? Nb xlsx is the culprit: neither rJava nor
