+1 for the back end. If nothing else to further abstract your underlying data layer. It might help to think of flex as your medium for displaying/interacting with all that data in a useful/meaningful way. Leave things like UID generation serverside.

To be honest I couldn't tell you why it was causing the issue. As for your problem, all the documentation I have seen on using the GC "hack" says that it is just that a hack. You're not supposed to be able to trigger GC and as such that it should only be used as a tool in testing. My advice would

So it would be best to remove all listeners that you can and set every var the module is using to null before unloading it to get that memory back. That's definitely doable I'm just surprised that unloading the module doesn't wipe out all those references. Thanks for the quick reply Alex!
