Hi,

I am currently working on reading large files into R.  My files are text
documents with four columns and around 10 million lines.
Each line is set up as:
string|integer|string|integer

I have been trying to use read.table to read in the file, but I think I am
reading too much into memory and the application quits.

I want to be able to analyze the entire text document at once.
I have thought about reading in the file, line by line, but I still want to
store all the information together.  I have also thought about writing each
line of the file to a matrix, but I cannot seem to figure it out.

Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Amy
