[Rd] LazyData: no / yes

[Christophe Genolini]

I get it from windows tack manager (under Window 7). I guess it is in K something.
My point was not about "how big is my dataset" (anyway, it is a fake dataset, so it can be as big as 
I want) but more about "where on hell are lost the 52 760 - 39 668 K ?"
:-)
