Delete?

I'm sure this is a really dumb question, but I'm going to ask it anyway...
What's the command for deleting an instance of a class (or any data for that matter)? The token 'delete' causes a compile error.

just set it null --- so it can be collected. like:
myClass myclass = new myClass();
myclass.move();
myclass.draw();
myclass = null; // now it can be garbage collected.

Does this work 100% of the time?
I've noticed a lot of p5 apps take over the CPU and don't release it again, even after I surf to another page. On several occasions I've had to close my browser after surfing through the examples on proce55ing.net.
If this isn't do with garbage collection, any idea what causes it?

i experience the same problem all the time with safari. stupid thing chaches the jar as well, so sometimes i can't even check newer versions of something i'm working on. nope, clear cache doesn't do the job. grrrr.

If you're building the page dynamically you can usually beat the cache by sticking a random number on the end of the filename (e.g "sketch_040818b.jar?nocache="+random()).
I'm new to p5, but this works pretty well with flash.
