Hi,
It is certainly not a memory or CPU problem, I should have mentioned in
the first email that I already tried to check for that.
However, I now tried to disable EndNote 9 from the Add-Ins, and it seems
that was the problem. I still dont understand why this happens though.
There seems to be some issues with using older versions of EndNote on a
64-bit computer:

This caused me some trouble in the past, slowing down Windows Explorer,
but this got solved by turning off the instant formatting. It is very
strange that it apparently only affects R now, and I would prefer if I
could use the two programs at the same time...
Thanks for the suggestion though,
Jon

Start up perfmon on your system (or the task manager) and then look at
who is consuming the CPU and memory. This will provide insight to the
problem. You need to determine if it is a CPU problem or possibly
memory due to paging. The tools are there for you to trouble shoot
the problem since it is probably not being caused by R unless you have
some very large objects. The task manager will tell you how much
memory a process is consuming.

Dear list,
I quite often experience a delayed response when I type in the console of
the RGui of my computer. When typing a command, the text only appears
letter-by-letter on the console if I type rather slow (maximum 1-2 letters
per second), otherwise it appears some time after I finished writing the
complete command. Moving back and forth in a command with arrows keys are
similarly slow if I need to correct something (which I often have to do,
given that I cannot read while writing).
Although this might sound like a minor problem (thinking takes more time
than writing when programming, and writing should anyway take place in a
proper text editor), it is quite annoying, especially when I just want to
rerun a long command after changing something at the start of the line.
Strangely, it seems that this problem starts when I open a Word-document,
and it stops when I close all open Word-documents. I do not have any
problems with other programs (including other programs from the office
package), and computation seems to run as quick as normal.
Some info about my system:
sessionInfo()
R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31)
x86_64-pc-mingw32
locale:
[1] LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252
[2] LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252 [3] LC_MONETARY=English_United
States.1252
[4] LC_NUMERIC=C [5] LC_TIME=English_United
States.1252
attached base packages:
[1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base >
objects()
character(0)
And as Word seems to be connected to the problem - I am running Windows 7
Pro with Office 2007, the only Add-In to Word is Endnote (version 9). I have
turned off the instant formatting option, as it also caused some other
problems.
Does anyone have a clue how I can have a Word document open and at the same
time work with R without having this delayed response?
Best wishes,
Jon
