[R-pkg-devel] What influences the size of the rdb file in a package

[Mosqueira Sanchez, Iago]

I am getting warnings in some packages about the size of the R folder

* checking installed package size ... NOTE
  installed size is 20.5Mb
  sub-directories of 1Mb or more:
    data   2.4Mb
    R     17.8Mb

This package contains around 3300 lines of code, if the results of

grep -v '^\s*#' *.R | wc

are correct.

Is this size to be expected? Is there anything I might be missinmg to
make it smaller?

Thanks,


Iago
