There’s a profiler tutorial on my blog.  However, in general, the number of 
instances of SWFLoader, Bitmap and BitmapData should not keep going up after 
you force garbage collection.
 
Several people say that if it is the browser, especially IE, you can minimize 
and restore IE and the memory will be reclaimed.

Thanks Alex,
 
So there shouldn't be any issues with the way I set the swfLoader in Cairngorn 
then? 
 
I did test with the profiler and unless I am blind I don't see it releasing 
memory, however, I am not an expert with it. When I do test with the browser 
(IE), I see the memory go down then back up, in the long run it always goes 
much higher and doubles or triples from original. I am not sure at this point 
if I should worry about it or code it a different way. If it is the brower, 
then I gather there isn't much I can do...
 
Thanks again.

Use the Profiler to see if you really have such a problem..  We have seen 
issues with some browsers not releasing memory even though Flex has.
