I'm running Splus4 on Windows NT, with a 166 Mhz pentium that has 128 Mb
of RAM.
I have a set of 12 large data sets in my _data directory, each 1-2 Mb.
When I try to start up Splus, it takes forever (meaning far beyond my
patience...more than 10 minutes or so) just to start up. I haven't
actually seen it start up.
These data sets are in the form of lists of 1000 small matrices. In my
_data directory, I see three strange files, called sum4.tx_ sum4.txt and
sum4i.txt. The first two of these are about 6600 kb in size.
My questions: what am I doing wrong? What is Splus doing when it
starts? It's not trying to read all of that data into RAM, is it? What
can I do to get Splus for Windows to work in this situation?
I'm used to working in a unix, on handsome sun workstations; in that
environment, I never had such problems.
Thanks,
karl
