I'm fairly confident that this is not specific to RKWard. See item 7.42 from the R FAQ: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#Why-is-R-apparently-not- releasing-memory_003f Certainly, RKWard adds some memory overhead, and probably it does leak a bit of memory here or there, but it should not interfere with R's memory (de-)allocation.
