Personally that seems like a bug to me. Maybe worth reporting. The manner in which a stack is closed shouldn't matter with regard to how destroyStack works.
But just to clarify, the stack in question is a separate stack file, and not a substack of the one you're going to, yes?
Remember that LC keeps the entire stack file in RAM, and can't purge it until the mainstack and all substacks within the stack file are closed.
If it is purgeable (as a separate stack file), my hunch is you won't ever see a RAM issue from caching. If you do it would be a bug. Caching is intended to speed up access, not to prevent ordinary behavior, so things not in use are purged as RAM is needed (same with cached images and other things).
If you're seeing slow or crashing behavior that seems like it might be RAM-related, maybe Apple's Instruments tool in xCode can help provide clarity on that:
