slight memory increase

Solar2D Advanced Graphics

I am getting a slight memory leak of about 6kb everytime I got from level to level.

Is this a big deal?  I think it is a leak, it is an increase.  Also what is the Mem I should shoot for for my final universal release?  

(this is memory, not texture memory)

Thanks!

Hi Eric,

I would try to locate the leak and plug it. 6 KB is very small, but in my opinion, a leak is a leak and should be plugged. Of course, you’ll need to find out what’s causing it, since it could be any number of things…

good advice… I took it… and I found it! 

 I completely forgot that I made a snapshot group so I could add cool effects to the entire screen. So I thought the stuff was still in sceneGroup. But when I iterated through the snapshot group and remove those pieces, the increase per level goes away!

ya!

Anyone know what the top Mem usage I should shoot for is?
