This is a modified copy of the man page for utils::object.size in R 2.2.1.
Exactly which parts of the memory allocation should be attributed to which object is not clear-cut. This function merely provides a rough indication: it should be reasonably accurate for atomic vectors, but does not detect if elements of a list are shared, for example. (Sharing amongst elements of a character vector is taken into account, but not that between character vectors in a single object.)
The calculation is of the size of the object, and excludes the space needed to store its name in the symbol table.
Associated space (e.g., the environment of a function and what the
pointer in a EXTPTRSXP points to) is not included in the
calculation.
Object sizes are larger on 64-bit builds than 32-bit ones, but will very likely be the same on different platforms with the same word length and pointer size.
Changes
Class of returned object is c("object_sizes", "numeric") with
appropriate print and c methods.
By default object.size outputs size in bytes, but human
readable format similar to ls, df or du shell
commands can be displayed by calling humanReadable directly,
calling print with the argument humanReadable=TRUE, or
by setting options(humanReadable=TRUE).
A numeric vector class c("object_sizes", "numeric") containing
estimated memory allocation attributable to the objects in bytes.
object.size in package 'utils' for the standard
version of this function,
Memory-limits for the design limitations on object size,
humanReadable for human readable format.
