I've been running an unsupervised random forest routine, yet I think a significant amount of memory is required.
To overcome this problem in a Windows environment, I understand that the 'memory.limit(...) command can be used. However, would anyone know if there's a similar command for Mac?
As far as I know, there is no memory limit in UNIX-based operating systems so you are only limited by the maximum memory physically installed in your computer.
Thanks for the feedback. I thought so too. However, I ran the procedure on a Mac in which the memory is basically unused, and it still runs into the same issue.
Warning message:
'memory.limit()' is Windows-specific
Do you think it's simply a warning as a consequence of the particular script, but the routine will actually still run in large applications?
The problem is, I tried the procedure on a large sample (10,000 obvs), and it basically terminated the sessions; so I tried it on a small sample. And with the small sample, I can obtain the output. Yet, the warning message appears.
