Hello, I would like to provide a helpful bug report to the maintainer of Rmixmod, but I'm not skilled in memory profiling.
The following example illustrates the problem : library(Rmixmod) genes <- matrix(rnorm(5000*50, 9, 2), nrow = 5000, ncol = 50) selected <- sample(5000, 25) columns <- split(1:50, rep(1:10, each = 5)) lapply(1:100, function(index) # 100 resamples with replacement { lapply(1:5, function(fold) # 5-fold cross validation { apply(genes[selected, columns[[fold]]], 1, function(aGene) mixmodCluster(aGene, nbCluster = 1:3)) return(NULL) }) }) Even though no data was assigned to any variables, even if I do gc() after the loop, 5 GB of RAM is used. This makes the software unusable in a loop, because the server freezes when it runs out of RAM. May someone who is an expert help me ? -------------------------------------- Dario Strbenac PhD Student University of Sydney Camperdown NSW 2050 Australia ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
