Dear all,
my R-program which does a lot of object allocation / de-allocation.
To be able to run it without running into excessive swapping, I have
to set an limit on the maximum memory used by R.
Within terminal, this can be done easily:
ulimit -m 1000000
R
> source("myprogram.R")
I can then observe nicely in ActivityMonitor that the amount of
memory used by R growth upto 1GB (my machine has 1.5GB installed) and
is then reduced drastically by the garbage collector.
But I would prefer to work in the GUI (R.app). Is there a way to set
such an limit for the R-process started within the GUI?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Best regards,
Klaus
