Hi

I am running analysis with Kcross from the package spatstat and I am getting
a message that R can  not allocate enough memory for a vector of 900MB.
R seems to be running towards the 2GB limit per process.

The dataset is not to big (ca 3000 points) but the mask for the points is
extremely irregular (a buffer around roads which have been sampled) and I
can do trhe analysis if I use a rectangular mask covering the whole area
(which is obviously not correct).

My question is: is there a way of splitting the dataset or changing the mask
son that I can do the analysis, as I don't want to move to a 64bit computer
(if not necessary).

Thanks,

Rainer
