[BioC] Memory problems with the Oligo package

[Benilton Carvalho]

Aashish,

I'd suggest: try the devel-version of oligo.

*but*, that will require you to build R-2.6.0 for Windows and, also,  
wait until we fix the problem with the path for the pd.mapping packages.

As I work-around, you might want to try to increase your swap... (not  
sure how windows deals with that).
