You need to make sure that a complete GC cycle has run after producing
your result, before

(Gc.stat ()).Gc.live_words gives you what you want.

The function you need is that one :

val full_major : unit -> unit

Do a minor collection, finish the current major collection cycle, and perform a 
complete new cycle. This 
will collect all currently unreachable blocks.

You should make sure that variables with values holding large objects
are not syntactically in the scope of any piece of code that can still
be evaluated (I am not sure I am very clear). Here is a small example :


let x = ... in
(* here you are not sure x is collected even if the variable does not
appear after this comment *)
let y = 3 in
...


Cheers,
Christophe
