+1 This would be helpful for gene expression data.

I'm seeing this problem as well and I've been able to reproduce it in the example above. Also Darwin. ```{r} > sessionInfo() R version 3.4.0 (2017-04-21) Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin15.6.0 (64-bit) Running...

As a follow up, it looks like the error emanates from `helpers.R`, line 105. The `grep()` statement on 104 defines a relative path as one that starts with a letter,...

Hi. Thanks for the thorough description of the problem. I have not heard of people working with bigmemory on pp64le. Would you mind sending the error? If it's coming from...

I think it's a good suggestion. Your '/tmp' file is probably filling up because of the temporary objects that are created during matrix computations with bigmemory. Under normal circumstances, we...

Thanks for the link. This is very interesting. `bigmemory` doesn't do any other caching. According to [this](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/87908/how-do-you-empty-the-buffers-and-cache-on-a-linux-system) you may need to echo 1, 2, and 3. Are you on a...

Thanks for pointing this out. The call `-luuid` has been dropped from configure and we are re-running tests. I'll check the results this afternoon.

@cdeterman and @privefl after looking at the slides I think we can do this and I like the idea of making a `big.matrix` a first-class R object. I guess the...

@cdeterman It has been marketed for compact object representation but overriding `duplicate` could be used so that copied `big.matrix` objects can have copy-on-write behavior. If you are not going to...

It would certainly tighten the code up. Would you mind showing some example code for how it would look? I originally thought about a macro because there is a lot...
