[R] [R 1.4] WARNING: --max-vsize=8000M : too large and ignored

[Luca.Toldo@merck.de]

Why is there a limit on the amount of vector heap one can use ?
I am operating on a 16GB SGI (O2000) machine.
Furthermore, is there any way to make R using multiple threads ?
Regards
Luca

p.s. I understand that I might be pushing a bit R beyond its most common
operation set. However, also understanding where the limits of R are, is
a good excercise.
