Variance of the TMLE estimates of the ATE #9

On the example provided here if I run 100 times the estimation procedure for a dataset of size 100 000 samples the variance of my estimates is consistently ~4.5 bigger than the original implementation from the original package. I need to investigate the reason behind this.

Idea suggested by Sjoerd: see if the original package runs more than one iteration of TMLE updates even for this case as it may be reducing variance.

finally solved as not replicable, probably due to a problem in the memory of the R session
