I have some computers with a massive amount of memory, and I have some
jobs that could use very large matrix sizes. Can R handle matrices of
larger than 2GB? If I were to create a matrix of 1,000,000 x 1,000, it
would use about 8GB. Can R work with an array of that size if I have
compiled R on an IA64 Linux system with 15GB of RAM?
Yes. See ?Memory-limits.
help.search(limits) gets you there.
