hi there!
this has been posted long time ago, but problem still exists. when loading pimages via requestimage, the memory is not freed even after nulling all references to the returned image and running the garbage collector. as i need to access a whole bunch of many different images throughout the whole runtime and i do not want to switch to 64 bit, memory usage is crucial.
anyone got an idea, why the memory is not freed? there must be still a reference to the image internally, where could this be?
this is the old thread:

thanks in advance,
