I recently started getting what I can best describe as a memory "race" condition in my R
( OSX 10..5.8) It started a while back with R2.11, so I upgraded to 2.12 and have the same issue System Updates have been installed. Then 2.12 was installed. Updates for X11 installed. The phenomena appears like this. Starting R (64bit) from the R.app icon R launches and consumes roughly 50mb of memory. If I open a script and merely highlight text in that window the memory consumption runs up to 1.3Gb and the system grinds to a halt. I even lose window focus temporarily. After a few minutes the memory is released and I get cursor control back. Then it will race again, Running R from the terminal R --vanilla did not exhibit these issues. Any ideas?
