Re: [R] Is it too big for R?

2005-03-22 Thread Don MacQueen
I regularly work with data frames with around 144000 rows and 23 columns.
In fact, I work with two of them in the same session, one in 
.GlobalEnv and the other in search()[2], attached using attach() on a 
file previously saved with save().

RE: [R] Is it too big for R?

2005-03-22 Thread Liaw, Andy
It might be too big to R on the machine your are using, and it's also highly
dependent on what you want to do with it.  E.g., if you try to cluster the
rows using something that requires the full distance matrix, you're most
likely out of luck.  I've dealt with data with 20,000 rows but more than
5000 columns in R with no problem.
