Hi,

did you look at the load_database service? Here is the code to cleanup everything: https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros/blob/1e28de0b38d20410d47fb9fb5d4c8d96f1590c5d/src/CoreWrapper.cpp#L2930

In particular, mapsManager_.clear() should be called, as it can hold a lot of memory.

cheers,
Mathieu
