Dear R users, I know this issue came up in the list several times. Im currently running R on 32-bit on Windows and due to memory limitation problems would like to move to a 64-bit environment. Im exploring my options and would appreciate your expertise:
1) Windows 64-bit: Prof. Brian Ripley recently posted the experimental built of R for win 64-bit. Ill appreciate any feedback on anyone who has been testing this. He also mentioned that for now, ...this as only being of interest for those who only use a few relatively simple packages. But if one uses packages beyond those relatively simple, how possible is today to have those installed? 2) MacOS or Unix. Sorry for my ignorance on this but if I use any of these environments on 64-bit and installed R on any of those, this is all I need to have R working on 64-bit. How about installing specialized packages? Are the packages on the CRAN repositories ready tho use on these systems or do I have to do any additional work to get them going? Thanks in advance for your help! Axel. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
