Sameproblem with both R and R64. I am not doing heavy computation,
mostlyjust editing some scripts in the GUI. Also the computer is
plenty fastwith sufficient memory. I looked around but haven't seen
anything onthis problem. Have also tried reinstalling R.
Things you might try:
1) delete your .RData file
2) delete your .Rhistory file # both of these are hidden by default
so you need to either do it from a Terminal session or change the
defaults for display of system files in Finder
3) repair permissions (probably the easiest way is with Disk
Utility.app)
In the past I have had problems with R freezing up when I attempted to
access external links to pdf files from the help window when using the
GUI, but I have not been able to reproduce that behavior consistently.
If you can notice what you are doing just before the freeze, that
might be helpful.
