Garbage Collection
Usage

Value
A call of gc causes a garbage collection to take place.
This usually takes place automagically without user intervention.
The associated function gcinfo sets a flag so that
automatic collection is either silent (verbose=FALSE) or
prints memory use statistics (verbose=TRUE).
Examples
gc() #- do it now
gcinfo(TRUE) #-- in the future, show when you do it
