Subject: max-nsize, cons : what do they all mean?
Hello R users,
I had recently run an R session where a particular function ran
several thousand times, i think into the hundreds of thousands.
I got this error related to cons cells, which I fixed by starting
(actually Rserve) with the --max-nsize=1G option.
I read the help page, but didn't quite understand it. What does the
option do and why did I initially run into an error ?
>From man R
--max-nsize
Set max number of cons cells to N
Why should there be a maximum?
Thanks for your time
