[R] [r] How to Solve the Error( error:cannot allocate vector of size 1.1 Gb)

[Kum-Hoe Hwang]

Hi, Gurus

Thanks to your good helps, I have managed starting the use of a text
mining package so called "tm" in R under the OS of Win XP.

However, during running the tm package, I got another mine like memory problem.

What is a the best way to solve this memory problem among increasing a
physical RAM, or doing other recipes, etc?
