The byte code attached to each function in a package can be surprisingly large. E.g., the byte code for the c. 300 line function Matrix:::replTmat seems to be c. 4.5 times the size of the raw code:
> object.size(Matrix:::replTmat) / object.size(as.function(as.list(Matrix:::replTmat))) 5.5 bytes [Is there a more direct way to remove byte code from a function? Or to inspect it?] Building Matrix with --no-byte-compile reduces the size of R/Matrix.rdx by more than half, from 2.7 MB to 1 MB. -Bill On Sat, Oct 30, 2021 at 12:00 AM Mosqueira Sanchez, Iago < iago.mosque...@wur.nl> wrote: > As far as I can see only classes, methods and functions are present > there.
