C stack size in R Interactive session #4311

Open Ilia-Kosenkov opened 6 years ago

Ilia-Kosenkov commented 6 years ago

Error: C stack usage 1993168 is too close to the limit is thrown while constructing a pretty large plot using ggplot2. The Cstack_info() inside this session gives

   size current  direction eval_depth 
1992294    9496          1          2

StackOverflow solutions suggest to increase stack size on a *nix machine using ulimit.

However, if I run R session outside of the Visual Studio (e.g. in console by typing R.exe), this same script executes fine and Cstack_info() gives

    size current  direction eval_depth 
63753420    9272          1          2

According to the manual, the size is reported in bytes and is expected to be accurate when measured on machines running Windows (and some other systems), and outside of Visual Studio environment it is ~30 times larger.

In this particular case I can bypass this limit by rearranging my plot commands, but some other complex tasks can fail due to this limit.

A way to control such specific settings of an instance of R running in RTVS could solve this problem.
