[R] R kills procedure during model fitting

[Roger Peng]

When you say "R kills the procedure" do you mean that R itself gets
killed, or that the function you are running gets killed *within* R?
Sometimes, when I run memory intensive procedures (on a GNU/Linux
platform) the OS will kill the R process if things get out of control.
