Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I appreciate this is second language for you, but you need to give us more information in order to help. Do the following. Load image then include MEMORY command. This will show the memory used. Then load another image and run MEMORY. You shouldn't see the memory usage increasing unless there is a memory leak that needs fixing. I don't see any sign of a memory leak in my testing so it may be something your program is doing. If you do see memeory increasing please post the images that cause the problem as it may be something to do with the specific encoding used.

Probably a good idea to post a small program to show the problem.

And ZIP with images if not too big for the forum.
