Yes, you may need more memory unless you can somehow free a good amount of RAM or find a more memory-efficient method for clustering.  If I'm reading it correctly, R wanted to allocate about 382 MB memory on top of what it had already taken but your computer had only about 98 MB swap plus about 1 MB RAM left to give.

> and it is still free mem(1000k or so),and swap(100000k or so),and the error is(i translate it from chinese into english,maybe not exactly ,but i think the meanings are right):
