But you are probably using 32 bit R.

You could try running this code. I copied if from a posting on r-help,  
but regret that I did not insert a comment to remind me who posted it.

getsizes <- function() {z <- sapply(ls(envir=globalenv()),
                                     function(x) object.size(get(x)))
  (tmp <- as.matrix(rev(sort(z))[1:10]))  }

I had the same sort of question so many times that I added it to  
my .Rprofile
