Here's a new one showing the memory raising:

-----------------8<--------------------------------
function loadfile(fname) {
        
        var file = new FileIO();
        
        if (!file.fopen(fname, "r")) 
                return null;
        
        var txt = file.fread();
        
        file.fclose();
        
        return txt;
        
}

mem = loadfile("/proc/self/statm");
if (!cycles) cycles=0;
cycles++;

gotoAndPlay(2);
-----------------8<--------------------------------

NOTE: Creating the instance (new FileIO) only once and reusing it is
better, but still eats up memory somewhere...
