Hello
First, thank you very much for you very fast and helpful answers - I
appreciate it a lot!
I found the error, the problem was that the method Rcpp::List::create()
does not always do what it should under Rcpp version 0.9.10. The reason
why this error is kind of hard to spot is that it doesn't occure
consistently but just about every tenth time. An update to Rcpp 0.9.13
fixes that issue.
I tought I would have the newest version of the package since I
performed an "Update pakages" in my R Studio and it told me that all
packages are up to date. Unfortunately I have not been aware of the fact
that not all CRAN mirrors contain the same packages which I naively
assumed. Switching between mirrors randomly I couldn't find one that
provides Rcpp in version 0.9.13. I manually downloaded it from the Rcpp
website and installed it from the download. Now it works.
Just writing it down here since someone might have the same problem and
might stumble upon this post. Sorry for spam.
Hav a nice day and thanks again for your fast relplies.
Sincerely,
Mathias

As Rcpp objects are 'proxy objects' for the underlying R objects, we
are
bound by the exact same limits that R objects are bound. So
currently
vectors are limited to 2^31 - 1 elements, and as matrices are
internally
stored as vectors with a dimension argument, this holds for matrices
too.
R 2.16.0 may bring a chance, but for now this is the hard limit.
