Hello,
You are dealing with two different problems at the same time: importing
Stata data and importing a relatively big file.
Can you try to export your data to txt file first and try to import from
it directly?
That's likely to be worse in terms of memory than using read.dta, although it
does provide the possibility of reading the data in chunks.
