Hello,

I'm using R versions 4.1.3 and 4.2.1 on Windows and I'm having a problem with memory usage.

Currently, I need to use the arrow and dplyr libraries in a program and when I compare the memory used between the windows task manager and the memory.size(max=F) function, the one given by the windows task manager is much larger, 243.5 MB, than the one given by the memory.size(max=F) function, 75.77 MB.

However, I delete objects created with rm() and then use the gc() function to recover the memory used by the object.

Below, with and without ouput, the R code I used to present my problem :

Do you think this memory difference is normal?
Could it be caused by the libraries used and/or by bad practices in using the R language?

Thank you for your help, and I remain at your disposal for any further information you may require.

Best regards,
