Clears the memory used by all underlying objects

Clears the memory used by all underlying objects

Usage

clearMemory(clearSimulationsCache = FALSE)

Arguments

clearSimulationsCache

optional - Should the simulation cache also be cleared? Default is FALSE.

Details

The function aims at clearing the memory used by object references allocated during some workflows. The memory should typically be freed automatically when the system is under memory pressure or when the garbage collection is kicking in. However, it may be necessary sometimes to explicitly start the garbage collection process.

Examples

# This will clear the memory and also clear the simulations cache but leave
# the environment intact.
clearMemory(clearSimulationsCache = TRUE)
