Hi all, Using big vectors (more than 4GB) is unfortunately not possible under Windows or other OS's if not enough RAM exists. Could it be possible to implement an a new data type in R, like a vector, but instead holding the information in memory, the data lies on an file. If data is accessed, the data type vector get the information automatically from the file. There is a package out there (named ff) but the accessed boundary have to be declared by the user this is a disadvantage.
