I'm using the Splancs package to compute standard errors of the estimates of a spatio-temporal k function. When I use as spatial and temporal distances too long vectors (respectively 60 and 80 entries) for a dataset of 1000 observations, R gives me the message Error: cannot allocate vector of size 180000 Kb Reached total allocation of 512 Mb.
