On a $150 second-hand laptop with 0.9GB of library,

cd $LIBRARY
echo "kbytes package"
du -sk * | sort -k1n
took 150 msec to report the disc space needed for every package.

On Sun,
On my Windows 10 laptop I see evidence of the operating system caching
information about recently accessed files. This makes it hard to say how
the speed might be improved. Is there a way to clear this cache?

Dear List Members,
I tried to compute the file sizes of each installed package and the
process is terribly slow.
It took ~ 10 minutes for 512 packages / 1.6 GB total size of files.
1.) Package Sizes
system.time({
x = size.pkg(file=NULL);
})
# elapsed time: 509 s !!!
# 512 Packages
