Hi Simon,
... all interesting (but quite a bit above my head). I only read
'Linux' and want to throw in that this problem does not appear on
Linux (it seems). I talked about this with Martin Maechler and he
reported that the same example (on one of his machines; with NA_real_
instead of '0's in the matrix) gave:
Error: cannot allocate vector of size 70.8 Gb
Timing stopped at: 144.79 41.619 202.019
... but no killer around...
Well, with n=1. ;-)
Actually this also happens under Linux and I had my R processes killed
more than once (and much worse also other processes so that we had to
reboot a server, essentially). That's why we use job scheduling on
servers for R nowadays ...
Best,
Uwe
Cheers,
Marius
