Prof Ripley,
I have attached a sample Excel spreadsheet
containing approx 500 RApply("qnorm"...
references. When I repeatedly re-calc
cell references, either automatically or manually
(F9), the memory usage on my system increases
with each re-calc seemingly without bound.
The more RApply references the greater the
incremental memory consumption.
I'm using Excel 2000 (9.0.4402 SR-1)
runnning under Microsoft Windows 2000
5.00.2195 SP3 on an IBM T21 laptop
with 256MB of memory.
I'm running R 1.8.1
> version
_
platform i386-pc-mingw32
arch i386
os mingw32
system i386, mingw32
status
major 1
minor 8.1
year 2003
month 11
day 21
language R
with RExcel version 1.0
and R DCOM server version 1.2
If you need any additional information
please let me know.
Thanks,
