Read the profiler post and garbage collection presentation on my blog. GC is opportunistic. It only runs on allocate (or when you take a snapshot). It does not always run when you free up stuff.

If I am making a simple SWF with a document class where I call a method after 10 seconds which should dispose all the creating movieclip at startup. I have the issue that the reference counter of the several objects keep staying on 1 (watching it in the Live Objects tab pane in Eclipse) but after I press the button for creating a memory snapshot the counters go down to 0. What does this mean? Does the memory snapshot does a forced run on the garbage collection or were my objects already 0 but the Live Objects list didn't get updated? Anyone having any clue?
