If you're not using `bitmap` after this point, you should be able to dispose of
it:
bitmap.Dispose();

It shouldn't be necessary to dispose of these members; no wrappers are
generated unless you access the member. (That is, if you never use
image.CacheDir, then you don't need to dispose of it as it will never have been
wrapped.)
What might be useful is enabling gref logging to see how many Bitmap instances
you're creating and if they're ever being freed:
http://docs.xamarin.com/android/advanced_topics/diagnostics#Global_Reference_Messages
adb shell setprop debug.mono.log gref
