Hi,
This is what I get with recent R devel on a 64-bit Ubuntu laptop:
> mydf <- data.frame(a=1:2080, b=1001:2040, c=letters, d=LETTERS,
e=1:1040)
> mydf_in_a_character_vector <- capture.output(mydf)
Error in print.default(m, ..., quote = quote, right = right) :
cannot allocate memory block of size 17179869182.6 Gb
I get something similar with R 2.14.1.
Cheers,
H.
