References

This package shares an objective with the bigglm methods of biglm. In bigglm, a small-RAM-footprint algorithm is employed, with sequential chunking to update statistics in each iteration. In parGLM the footprint is likewise controllable, but statistics in each iteration are evaluated in parallel over chunks.
