I noticed that in Flash 10.1, the Flash player actually releases the garbage collected memory. It works in both the desktop player and in the browser. And Sytem.gc() is now working perfectly fine! Regards, Hello jackson!

I think using an array would be just like using a vector, only slower. Did you have something in mind about arrays that would make them faster in this instance than vectors? If so, I'd love to hear it. Thanks again. Thanks for your comment. I think using an array would be just like using a vector, only slower.

Would that allow for a compromise between the "recycling" linked-list and linked-list performances? I'm thinking along these lines: treat the array like a stack, push freed (or recycled) objects onto it, pop them off to allocate.
