[BioC] Memory problem with RMA

[Phguardiol at aol.com]

Hi,
I d like to compare results obtained with different approaches with a set of 
9 HU133A chips. One of these would be to use the rma background correction 
method and the invariant set normalization method but it seems that with ONLY 9 
chips I am running out of memory !!! I have 1 Go RAM on XP Pro R1.7.1 and RMA 
1.3.6... and nothing is running aside this program. I was expecting it to run 
under these conditions !!! Philippe

background correction: rma 
normalization: invariantset 
PM/MM correction : pmonly 
expression values: medianpolish 
background correcting...Error: cannot allocate vector of size 35644 Kb
