RStudio crashing in MacOS Sequoia

RStudio IDE
1

RStudio is crashing for no apparent reason on MacOS Sequoia 15.1. I have a MacMini with 6-core CPU and 32 GB memory. I am running RStudio version 2024.09.1+394 (latest available) with R-4.4.2 (latest). The same code using R console or R terminal works fine and also runs well in Linux. It appears to be a problem related to some conflicts between RStudio and Mac OS X.

Did this start after you upgraded one particular component of that system? My setup is almost identical and I've noticed no such issue so far, but I haven't upgraded to latest sequoia yet, still running 15.0.1.

Thanks @mduvekot I have upgraded my system to the latest versions of R, RStudio and MacOS X.

Dear @mduvekot and other, the source of the problem is a bug in R-4.4.2 for MacOS machines with Intel chip. Restoring R-4.2.3 solves all issues.
