Also, my RAM is about 350GB > Your guess is wrong. An R vector has a max length of 2^31-1 (or something like this). Thats what you run into. To go beyond this you need something called "long vectors" which can be much, much longer. But it seems like HilbertCurve (like many other instances) don't support long vectors yet.
