Dear Jim, Thanks for your attention. I am running a geostatistic analysis with geoR that is computational intense. At the end my analysis I call the function krige.control and krige.conv. Do you have any idea how to improve the memory allocation in Linux?
Thanks, Ricardo De: jim holtman <jholt...@gmail.com> Assunto: Re: [R] Memory Management under Linux Para: "ricardo souza" <ricsouz...@yahoo.com.br> Cc: r-help@r-project.org Data: Sexta-feira, 5 de Novembro de 2010, 10:21 It would be very useful if you would post some information about what exactly you are doing. There si something with the size of the data object you are processing ('str' would help us understand it) and then a portion of the script (both before and after the error message) so we can understand the transformation that you are doing. It is very easy to generate a similar message: > x <- matrix(0,20000, 20000) Error: cannot allocate vector of size 3.0 Gb but unless you know the context, it is almost impossible to give advice. It also depends on if you are in some function calls were copies of objects may have been made, etc. On Thu, Nov 4, 2010 at 7:52 PM, ricardo souza <ricsouz...@yahoo.com.br> wrote: > Dear all, > > I am using ubuntu linux 32 with 4 Gb.
