Probably doesn't know that it should deallocate so eagerly.
A GC.collect(); call may help.
That's a good idea. GC really needs to be kicked in once in a
while because it did _nothing_ in 8 hours, even though my
application is just a couple of timers - it isn't a hard task for
CPU or memory and there's plenty of time to collect some garbage.
Now I finally understand why GC is not a great thing. I was
writing apps utilizing GC for a long time and never had problems
with it, but when it came down to this simple program it stabbed
me in the back.
