Hi!

I'm running a zero-inflated negative binomial regression on a large (n=54822) 
set of confidential data. I'm using the code: 
ZerNegBinRegress<-zeroinfl(Paper~.|., data=OvsP, dist="negbin", EM=TRUE)

And keep getting the error: 

Warning message:
glm.fit: fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred 

I've done enough reading about this error to realize that I have a linear 
separation issue, for which the solution seems to be eliminating variables. 
However, elminating via trial and error isn't getting me anywhere, especially 
since the regression takes about 10 minutes to run every time. I tried to 
identify the issue using the xtab function and received this error:

Error: cannot allocate vector of size 1.4 Gb

Is there an easier way to identify the covariate that is causing me problems 
here? Also, am I right in assuming that the count regression should be fine, 
while its just the logit regression that is causing me the issue (I've never 
done a zero-inflated regression before). 

Thanks!!

Carly
