R distance objects are triangular, maybe consider as.dist() that would require 
the square matrix as input. Which could be reconstructed(or you have it 
already.) I do not know if there is a biglm() alternative to princomp(), but 
maybe consider using subsets of your data because that plot, if created, is 
going to be very hectic.
