usually this is handled by a carbage collector , you dont have direct 
access to what stays in memory.
the "dont cache" declarations can be done via http, set your server so 
the SVG files expire imidiately.
another approach would be to load just one SVG file, and then load new 
data from within SVG.
and  replace the old content on recieve of new data, that might be a bit 
more controllable,
but im not so sure about that.
