Calculating Distance Metrics using Euclidean

I am trying to calculate the distance metrics, but i keep getting this error.
I am very new to R. Am i doing something wrong.
dim(data.sub) 
[1] 10000   140
dist(data.sub, method = "euclidean", diag = FALSE, upper = FALSE, p = 2) 
Error: cannot allocate vector of size 781250 Kb 
In addition: Warning messages: 
1: Reached total allocation of 1014Mb: see help(memory.size) 
2: Reached total allocation of 1014Mb: see help(memory.size)
