Re: [igraph] Problems with large network.

[Gábor Csárdi]

Hi, 

igraph uses 32 bytes per edge and 16 bytes per vertex to store a network. The network is copied from the C address space to R's address space (btw. are you using R at all?), so multiply by two.

You might need more when reading it in, depending on the file format.

I have a network links file with 673123356 connections. Can igraph handle it?

I have tried to read this through read.graph, but every-time it crashes. I have 8GB RAM and i3 quad core processor.

What is the max memory or configuration needed to read this one and perform further calculations like looking at the degree distribution and other topological analysis?
