Strange Memory Leak

Hi,

I have a "big" problem : put this piece of code in
a frame script and 
run the movie

global test

on enterframe me
  test = vector(0,0,0)
end

on exitFrame me
  go to the frame
end

watch the memory inspector : the ram used by the program
will grow up to 
4k / 6k every second
why ??? how to prevent this ?

thanks

Alexx

Wow!
is it only when vector(0,0,0) is in the enterframe handler?
try prepareFrame instead and see if that works

Well, had you tried to create the vector entity 1 frame
back? and in case
you need to put it in 0

on enterframe me
test.x = 0
test.y = 0
test.z = 0
end

Maybe the garbage collector drives nuts if you create an
instance of the
vector several times in one second.
