Thank you all,
No offense meant. I like R tremendously but I admit I am only a
beginner. I did not know about gc(), but it explains my confusion about
rm() not doing what I expected it to do.
I suspected that .RData was a compressed file. Thanks for the
confirmation. As for Windows, unfortunately it is not upon me to choose
the system.
