[R-sig-Geo] [plain text] Error: cannot allocate vector of size 274.7 Mb

[Raffaele Morelli]

Hi,
sorry for double posting but I saw my messages were scrubbed from html
garbage and don't know if nobody replies for that, but just in case...
apologize if not.

I am having trouble with this error when calculating a density on a
point pattern dataset with 34480 points.
My script exit when calculating

z<-density(mypattern, 3000, dimyx=3000)

The machine the script it's running on it's a debian/amd64 OS with
16Gb RAM, I have set to unlimited the memory limits (the output of
ulimit -a follows)

Any ideas?
Regards
