Adobe, please checkout this application

Question

Hello Adobe,
You should checkout our Flex / AIR Application.
It is the largest Flex / AIR project / application I had ever
seen.
It has over 150 modules, built on 5 Flex projects and uses
over 1150 libraries.
The Functionality is enormous and the application rocks !!!
We give Free Digital Signage ( Advertising monitor software )
We actually re-developed some of the Flex code due to bugs
and memory leaks.
We will be happy to work closely with Adobe developers on
stability and performance issues.
Just check it out, you will be happy you did.

Answer 1

I am having exactly the same issue. Here is simple test case:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication creationComplete="creationComplete(event)" xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                                                     xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                                                     xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">
          <fx:Script>
                    <![CDATA[
                              import mx.events.FlexEvent;
                              protected function creationComplete(event:FlexEvent):void
                                        var timer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
                                        timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, onTimer);
                                        timer.start();
                              private function onTimer(event:Event):void
                                        videoDisplay.source = null;
                                        videoDisplay.source = "file:///D:\\test.flv";
                    ]]>
          </fx:Script>
          <s:VideoDisplay id="videoDisplay"/>
</s:WindowedApplication>
  The only workaround which works for me is to call System.gc() in the onTimer function. So it seems like for some reason garbage collector can't determine automatically that app runs out of memory.
