[R] R-1.8.0 memory.limit()

[James MacDonald]

Using R-1.8.0 (d/l and compiled on 2003-10-01) on WinXP, I seem to be
unable to determine the maximum memory allocated to R. The help still
says to use memory.limit(size=NA), but this returns the value NA.

In addition, I have set --max-mem-size=2G but I run out of memory
somewhere around 500Mb (which is why I am trying to find out how much
memory is allocated). I don't have any other programs open, so I should
certainly be able to address more memory than that.

Any ideas?

TIA

Jim
