Refresh the memory

[Mandans <mandans_p@yahoo.com>]

Hello everyone,

Thanks for being such a great forum of knowledgeable members and helping 
everyone out here.

Have a question regarding memory refresh.

I am using Splus 8.1 and was wondering is there a way to delete all the 
temporary memory allocation and temporary files and start fresh.

I have a For loop which reads from text file, do some calculation and write a 
file out. These files are big files say around 100Mb after it goes through 5 or 
6 files it gives an error saying - "Buff Error: Output device full when writing 
to C:\----\xxx.dcf file" and it stops. If you again start from where it stopped 
it runs again for another 5 or 6 files and then it gives this same error. I 
have loaded the bigdata library. If there is a way I can refresh the memory in 
the beginning of the for loop, I would think it would work and each for loop 
run is independent. Any suggestions.?

This is my sample code

--
library(bigdata)

for i in 1:100 {

 data1 <- importData(paste("C:/Data/Folder/",i,".txt",sep=""), type="ASCII")

# data1 processing
# after the processing data2 is created and writing to the disk

exportData(data2,
        paste("C:/Data/Folder/Data",1,".txt",sep=""), type = "ASCII", 
delimiter= "\t", colNames=TRUE)

}

Any inputs is highly appreciated.

Thanks again for this wonderful forum.
Thanks
