    I'm running Splus 3.4 on the UNIX (Solaris 5.7, SunOS). When I try
    and fit a logistic regression model (my data set contains 193,000
    observations) with 6 covariates (all binary), I get the following
    error message:

>>  Error in model.matrix.default(Terms, X): Cannot allocate 19941904 bytes:
>>  options("object.size") is 5000000: see options help file

    I'm running Splus on an ULTRA 5, with 512 megs RAM, and 1.5 gigs
    swap space. (There are no other processes running that can eat up 
    memory). What should I do to avoid this error ? Any help will be
    much appreciated. Thanks.
