[R-SIG-Finance] Blotter : "Error: cannot allocate vector of size 300 Mb"

[Frédéric LABORDERIE]

Hello,
I am trying to use Blotter's addTxn for the testing of a strategie.
It is tested on daily bars, 5 years of data and there are 225 trades.

In spite of those modest numbers, I get the out of memory message. I 
can't imagine that I've reached my  computer memory limits with such a 
simple test.
I have tried to use gc() and cleaned my code, but with no success.
It seems addTxn needs a lot of memory to perform its task, as tR doesn't 
complain if I skip it.

Would you have any suggestion regarding what could be wrong , what to 
look for ?
Thank you.
