[BioC] Memory issues with EBImage

Hello,

I have a problem using big images (21Mpixel) with the EBImage package. I get an error message stating "cannot allocate vector of size 481.3 Mb". Is there a way to work around this problem? I tried to use the 64-bit version of R, but the package seems not to support that...

Thanks for any suggestion!
