Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Download Mosaic-5.zip from \\vulcan\Fibonacci\assembler\Mosaic-5.zip and unzip
2. Start the server by executing standalone/startup.bat
3. Import the samples by running "Ant" in the /samples directory
4. Install the Mosaic AIR runtime from the /bin directory
5. Connect to the server at http://localhost:8080
6. Load the Basic sample
7. Close the runtime window
8. Load the Brokerage sample, then close the window
9. Continue the process until the AIR runtime exits abruptly

Actual Results:
The AIR runtime crashes after loading 3-5 applications. Analysis indicates the SWFLoader is hanging on to the first instance of each tile loaded.

Expected Results:
Memory should be released.
