[Bioc-devel] Spurious "dims [product 864] do not match the length of object [432]" on macOS

[Martin Morgan]

Errors that are intermittent and platform-specific are often due to memory
corruption, and can be investigated on Linux platforms with valgrind or
similar tools. Have you taken this approach?

Hi,



for several years xcms is suffering from absolutely spurious

issues on macOS.



There is no pattern regarding release/devel, R versions, different

macOS machines like merida1 in 2019, to machv2 today and a few

occurances inbetween. The tssue usually resolves itself after a few

days without any code change.



Interestingly, 864=432*2, so something is duplicated somewhere. Also,

today was the first time I saw BiocParallel mentioned near the error,

see below.



=> Has anyone observed such a domension mismatch, maybe in other

packages, and has any idea what could be the (spurious) cause ?



Yours,

Steffen
