Ah, you can change or disable R's detection of imminent stack limit transgressions. That does not change the actual stack size. You may well have guessed right that this question was actually about stack limit detection, but that is not what was written. The point of the comment in the manual is that if you run R embedded in another application, R potentially needs a fairly large stack size. The 1 or 2Mb default of most Windows' compilers is insufficient, and stack size is a parameter in the header of the application, not of the compiled R.dll. > > Cheers, > Simon > > > >> In the R-exts document, it says:"Note that R's own front ends >> use a stack size of 10Mb".
