title: R Memory "Cannot allocate vector of size N"
body: <p>I am trying to run the ExtremeBound package on R and it is crashing when I run it because the memory seems to be too small...</p>
  
  <p>Here is the error message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Error: cannot allocate vector of size 2.6 Gb

  <p>I have allocated 800GB of Hardware as RAM (which is 16GB installed) and my Windows 10 Computer is working on an Intel i7.</p>
  
  <p>How can I tell R to use the additional allocated RAM? I looked up other questions but the answers redirect to the use of packages that seem to make the entire matter more complicated.</p>
  
  <p>Also, here is my sessionInfo():</p>
