[BioC] memory requirement

[Wilkinson, Mark]

Here, here.  I'd've asked sooner, but suspected I'd be advised the brute
force approach of beefing up my machine.

I'm running the affy package, specifically, with U133 chips, but am only
able to read in 10-15 CEL files at once.  Any way around this?  I've
considered using 'merge' to read a few, merge, read a few more, merge, etc.
I'm using Windows R, which seems to have poor memory management anyway. Any
tips?

I am concerning the memory requirement of running bioconductor on Affy
chips. Could you give me an estimate?

Thanks.
