I've tried forcing the GC to fire, it is definitely collecting some variables because the ram usage does reduce. The problem seems to be some hidden references to the mesh variable, and I can't find a single reference to it outside of the asteroid class itself. I'm beginning to believe it would be best to just rewrite the asteroidField to reuse the asteroids; I wanted to avoid this because it wouldn't be as random as the creation of removal of randomly chosen asteroids.
