I think there may be 64 bit versions of XP, but they are uncommon and I don't Rare indeed: they are really personal versions of Server 2003 (using that codebase, not XP's). But as it happens one of my IT staff uses x64 XP on his personal machine (he prefers XP to later versions of Windows) and has tested the R pre-2.11.0 installer there. know if they support our builds; we're testing in 64 bit Vista and Windows 7. And Server 2008 (win-builder). Revolution Computing also sells a build produced with a different compiler. It has the advantage that the compiler is probably in better shape than the one we are using Pros and cons. Yes, their compiler is more mature and better tested, but ours is a variant of gcc and a great deal of code (especially C++ in packages) is written for and tested on g++ and is more likely to give the intended answers on the R-core build. and they'll provide support with it; the disadvantage is that they'll charge for it, and they are probably not as up to date as us with respect to released version number. -- Brian D.

[R] R Cmdr memory

But you are probably using 32 bit R.
You could try running this code. I copied if from a posting on r-help,
but regret that I did not insert a comment to remind me who posted it.
getsizes - function() {z - sapply(ls(envir=globalenv()),
function(x) object.size(get(x)))
(tmp - as.matrix(rev(sort(z))[1:10])) }
I had the same sort of question so many times that I added it to
my .Rprofile
