Dear John and Anima,
I didn't reply earlier because other people got to it before I did and
because, given the lack of information in the original post, there wasn't
anything to add.
The car package shouldn't require anything near 2.5 Gb to load. Here's
what I get under Windows 10 with R 3.4.2:
> memory.size()
[1] 62.08> library(car)
> memory.size()
[1] 166.09
The units are MB (the ?memory.size help page says "Mb" but I believe
that's usually for "megabits" and that it isn't what's
intended).
Some more information, as has been suggested by other posters, might help.
Best,
John
