I am sorry but 55 x 35MB would be too much for R to handle at the 
moment. I'm still working on 'smarter ways' (I'll try to combine raster 
package functionality with ImageMagick etc) so that large images could 
be converted to PNGs without loading them to R memory. As you can see in 
my tutorial 
[http://plotkml.r-forge.r-project.org/tutorial.php#large_data], the 
section on exporting large data is still missing  :(

I think that by the end of 2012 the tutorial and functionality should be 
complete.
