You want the .size command (PV-Wave 3.02, I assume that IDL has it
also). I don't have the manual in front of me but .size takes 2
arguments, program and data space, or vice-versa.

My understanding is that the program code area contains all the functions and
subroutines that have been defined so far, as well as space allocated for each
variable that has been created so far.
I've been warned that the DELVAR function does remove the variable from dynamic
memory, but does not deallocate the space reserved in the program area for the
header. If one uses DELVAR a lot, for instance inside the loop of a program,
one could eat up all the program area that way.
I seem to recall that there was some new way to dynamically adjust the size of
the program area, but I can't find any documentation on it. Does anyone know
how to do this?

Try the retall command, that usually works for me.
