Free memory after TDMS logging

Hi, how can I free memory after reading TDMS files. I haev a very big TDMS file that contains 17000000 digital samples, after reading the data and graphing it I would like to delete it from memory because it is no longer needed. I have noticed I should close LabVIEW to free that space. Is there any way to free that memory after reading and plotting?

Thanks

LabVIEW wil take care of the memory management. Thus, there is no explicit way for you to free memory in LabVIEW. In fact, I don't think you should do that by yourself. LabVIEW has quite good memory optimation strategy and it wll track all the memory usage in your VI and reuse/free memory when there is no reference to it. As for TDMS, once the data is read out from the TDMS VIs, there will be no additional data copy inside.
