[R] Matrix scalar operation that saves memory?

[Shunran Zhang]

Hi all,

I am currently working with a quite large matrix that takes 300G of 
memory. My computer only has 512G of memory. I would need to do a few 
arithmetic on it with a scalar value. My current code looks like this:

mat <- 100 - mat

However such code quickly uses up all of the remaining memory and got 
the R script killed by OOM killer.

Are there any more memory-efficient way of doing such operation?

Thanks,

S. Zhang
