Is it just a file with a million values or is it some type of a structure with a million rows of indeterinent columns? If it is just a million numbers, you can easily read with is 'scan' or 'read.table' with no problem. I work with data structures that have several million rows and 4-5 columns without any problems. What is the format of the input?
