I am a user of XCMS for analysing LC-MS data. I have 500 samples(chromatograms) and I am getting an error message when ever I start the analysis saying cant make a vector of some MB size. I got the message after applying this command, it Works for some samples but at some point it stops: > xset <- xcmsSet(myDir, ppm = 25, peakwidth = c(20,50), method ="centWave", snthresh = 10, prefilter = c(3,100), mzCenterFun ="wMean", integrate = 1, mzdiff = -0.001, fitgauss = FALSE) would you please help me and inform me how i woud be possible increasing the capacity, -- output of sessionInfo(): (Error: cannot allocate vector of size 225.3 Mb) -- Sent via the guest posting facility at bioconductor.org.

Hello Bashar, I am unfamiliar to LC-MS with R but a common problem is trying to load in memory a vector that is too big for the hardware or software that you have. To help people help you, I suggest that you execute sessionInfo() at the R prompt and copy/paste that information so that we can at least see whether you are using a 32bit or a 64bit version. Also, copying and pasting the error message exactly as it is, may help.

You don't have enough RAM. Kasper On Fri, Dec 20, 2013 at 9:09 AM, Bashar Amer [guest] <guest@bioconductor.org> wrote: > > I am a user of XCMS for analysing LC-MS data.

Hi, so does it Means I need to use a computer with higher RAM?

Hi Bashar, It means you need more RAM. Whether you find a different machine with more RAM or install more RAM in the computer you are using is up to you.
