Re: [R] how to avoid a script from hanging up

Hello, Something you can do is saving your strings in a external text file (using cat, for instance). In this way, you would not require much memory while extracting your data. Once you have extracted it, you can always have a look at your external file to see if it is too big, what to do with it
