[R] Error: cannot allocate vector of size...

[R. Michael Weylandt]

You probably have more objects in your workspace than you did
previously. Clean them out (or just use a new R session) and things
should go back to normal.

You might also want to follow up on the help(memory.size) hint though
-- doesn't Windows impose a memory limit unless you ask it for more?
