  I realize that I gave too little information about the OS etc in my 
last e-mai. The "version"-command in R gave this result:

platform hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.11
arch     hppa2.0w            
os       hpux11.11           
system   hppa2.0w, hpux11.11 
status                       
major    1                   
minor    7.0                 
year     2003                
month    04

Hi,

I have a problem when using R1.7.0. I have a very large dataset, but I 
also have access to 24GB RAM on a super-computer. Nevertheless, when 
using the "lme"-function  I get the error message

Error: cannot allocate vector of size 224295 Kb

As I understand it, the default is that there is no memory-limit in R 
other than machine resources, but somehow R does not get acces to the 
24GB of RAM I have available.

Does anyone have a tip? I have tried

Ida
