Issue with memory deallocation/fragmentation on systems which use glibc
...rocess memory will stay ~ 1gb. However if
after that I will try to create large numeric vector, R will allocate
another continuous chunk of memory. And I had situations when my
long-running R process created and deleted many small objects so R heap
memory continued to grow. And eventually linux OOM killler killed R
process. On other side same code worked fine on OS X or if I manually time
to time called `mallinfo::malloc.trim()`.
My question is whether it is possible to call `malloc_trim()` with each
call of garbage collection on systems which use glibc? Calling it manually
doesn't look like goo...
