Yep, that's one of the aspects of using a weakly typed scripting
language with built in memory allocation and garbage collection.
It allows you to keep all your data structures in memory and be
a resource pig.
For now, there's not much I can do about this particular problem.
I'm still focussing on getting functionality to work properly.
However, I'll put this on my long-range ToDo list.
