I am running RStudio 0.92.38 on Windows Vista x64. I have hard time to increase the memory limit to what I have (12GB) by using memory.limit, such as memory.limit(size=12000) for ~ 12 GB. I always get error:

memory.limit() [1] 3904 memory.limit(size=12000) [1] 3904 Warning message: In memory.size(size) : cannot decrease memory limit: ignored

Some related info:

version _
platform x86_64-pc-mingw32
arch x86_64
os mingw32
system x86_64, mingw32
status
major 2
minor 11.1
year 2010
month 05
day 31
svn rev 52157
language R
version.string R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31)

When I issued the same memory.limit() from Rgui.exe, I got:

memory.limit() [1] 12270

It seems RStudio is limiting the memory usage.

Any help?

Thanks. SP

    Hi, if you wouldn't mind posting this at the [RStudio support forum](http://support.rstudio.org) instead, that would make it a lot easier for us to help you. Thanks! – Joe Cheng Mar 16 '11 at 18:21

This is a bug that will be fixed in v0.93 of RStudio. Thanks.
