Of course, since the memory allocation comes from Rprofmem (via benchmark::mark), this only measures allocations of memory for objects on R's heap. Allocations by C extensions (like DuckDB and SQLite) aren't tracked. They're surely _more_ space efficient than just reading everything into RAM, but perhaps by a smaller margin than shown here.
