I am prepairing a stack of 600 cards ; the size of the cards is 800x600 ; each
card has an image 640x480 in colour and a short text. The images are stored as
jpeg out of the stack.

This stack will be distributed on cd-rom in schools ; memory management is a
concern because some computers in schools have only 8 or 16 MO RAM.

What is the most efficient way to display the images :

- only one image in a group, the rect and the filename of the image stored as a
custom prop of the card and resetted in preopencard
- one image in each card, the filename of the image stored as a custom prop of
the card, loading the image on preopencard and setting the filename to empty on
closecard
- one image in each card, the filename of the image pointing on the actual image
file

In other words, does Metacard release automatically the space used in memory by
an image in a closed card
