Re: [R] interactions and stall or memory shortage

The short answer is that you're trying to make a categorical interaction out of continuous variables, so that the resulting factors i2 and i3 have 1050 and 7200 levels respectively. (Note to people trying to reproduce this example: you'll need library(emdbook); library(bbmle); data(Lily_sum)

Use Rprof on a small sample and determine where the time is being spent. Do some periodic gc() or memory.size() to see how fast you are using up memory. Do an object.size on all your objects to see see how be they are. This would help in the determination of the problem. On Mon, Aug 31, 2009
