Details

spam.getOption("imagesize") determines if the sparse matrix is coerced into a matrix and the plotted with image.default or if the matrix is simply represented as a scatterplot with pch=".". The points are scaled according to cex*getOption("spam.cex")/(nrow + ncol). For some devices or for non-square matrices, cex needs probably some adjustment.

# very large but very sparse matrix
smat <- spam_random(2^14, distribution=rnorm, density=1e-5, verbose=TRUE)
