[R] matrix of size 30^5

Dear R helpers Reproducible example: #warning - this causes a hard freeze on the machines I've tried it on matrix.holder<- matrix(rnorm(150), nrow=30, ncol=5) Out= expand.grid(matrix.holder[,1],matrix.holder[,2],matrix.holder[,3],matrix.holder[,4], matrix.holder[,5]) Problem: I'm running an an
