Comment:

 Hello there,

 How are you getting mnist8m.csv out of train8m-images-idx3-ubyte? (or is
 that the wrong file?)  Also, can you try with mlpack-1.0.6 or svn trunk to
 see if the issue has been fixed?

 There should not be a problem loading the file as far as RAM is concerned.
 allknn will use RAM at least 2x the size of the dataset, because the
 dataset is transposed upon loading.
