Hi all,

I'm having great trouble working with the Cforest (from the party package)
and Random forest functions.  Large data set seem to create very large model
objects which means I cannot work with the number of observations I need to,
despite running on a large 8GB 64-bit box.  I would like the object to only
hold the trees themselves as I intend to export them out of R.  Is there
anyway, either through options or editing out code and recompiling them, I
can reduce their footprint?

I've had a look at the cforest code and the culprit is the 'emsemble' area
of the object.  I suspect this part of the object contains something related
to the number of observations (I have savesplitstats set to FALSE so this
shouldn't be the issue).

Thanks,
Matt
