Error: OutOfMemoryError (Java): GC overhead limit exceeded

The memory issue is in Java, not R.

You can either be more parsimonious in your use of Java memory (we have no idea what you are doing with it here, so how you do that is up to you), or you can allocate more memory to Java (you may be able to guess how to do that, or read the Java documentation on the X parameter).

Hello all,

When I met this following error message:

Error: OutOfMemoryError (Java): GC overhead limit exceeded

I usually use the following options to overcome the memory limit:

options(java.parameters = "-Xmx1024m") # to reduce the error message
"Error: OutOfMemoryError (Java): GC overhead limit exceeded"

However, this seems not working any more, is there any other way to
help avoiding the memory error issue in R?

Thanks very much!

Cheers,

Rebecca
