Use the profiler to see if anything is keeping a reference to the SWF or objects in the SWF.

I'm using a class "mycustomSWFLoader" which extends SWFLoader and which use an instance of Loader class to load swf files (graphics data) from serialized SWF in bytearrays. All seem to be ok, I can display any of my swf, but the flash player does not free memory (the previous loaded swf) when I load a new swf. I have tried this approach : class myCustomSWFLoader extends SWFLoader { .... public function loadSWF(myByteArray: ByteArray):void { if(_loader != null) { // Call the unload & stop on _loader object _loader.unloadAndStop(); // Call the unload & stop on THIS unloadAndStop(); } else { _loader = new Loader(); _loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, swfLoaded); MY_CONTAINER.addChild(this); } if(myByteArray) _loader.loadBytes(myByteArray); else source = null; } ... I'm not sure about how the flash player handdle the unloadAndStop() but what is sure is that each time I call my method memory usage increases by 2Mb Any help would be much appreciated !
