can have 50 thousand or even more records, or even hundreds of thousands
or millions of records what would be the maximum amount of records that
R is able to read and process or better put, what would be the maximum
amount of rows and columns that R is able to manage (to perform data
mining analysis)? What would I need to do in order for R to be able to
manage large amounts of data?

Sorry - I forgot to add: the space
example at the end of my previous message: ~2.5 million records.


Cheers!
