Hi -

I have a Performer application that occasionally dies ungracefully.
Aside from *that* problem however is the problem that when this
happens, it does not free up memory. Is there a way to free up
memory after this kind of circumstance without requiring a system
reboot? I have included osview output below, both before i run
the application and after it crashes.

Thanks for any suggestions!
