Do you realise that --nsize is an item count, not a byte count?  On one
of our Unix systems, the command:
R --vsize 25M --nsize 10M
results in a 229MB process.   That will tax even a 256MB system, since
Windows takes about 64MB (doesn't it?)

So try starting up with somewhat smaller --nsize, I have found --nsize 1M
suits most needs.

Hope this helps,
