Hello:

        I am trying to work with a couple of microarray data sets, using

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              


In the shortcut for invoking R I have set --max-mem-size=1024M, so that I
get

> memory.limit()
[1] 1073741824

Below is an example of what keeps happening as I am working. Any suggestions
as to how I can stop running out of mermory?

harvard.genes$probeset,]

> log2.harvAD <- log2.harvAD[,c(1,1+order(names(log2.harvAD)[-1]))]
Error: cannot allocate vector of size 49 Kb
> log2.harvAD.annot <- unlist(lapply(strsplit(names(log2.harvAD),split=":"),
