Sorry, it's the stupid mistake on my part. Please forgive that question. I have to unload the variable first. On Wed, May 14, 2008 at 1:12 PM, Duncan Murdoch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 5/14/2008 3:59 PM, Anh Tran wrote: > >> I'm trying to work on a large dataset and after each segment of r

[R] Cleaning up memory in R

I'm trying to work on a large dataset and after each segment of run, I need a command to flush the memory. I tried gc() and rm(list=ls()) but they don't seem to help. gc() does not do anything beside showing the memory usage. I'm using the package BSgenome from BioC. Thanks a bunch -- Regards,
