[Borges-users] performance/memory

Hi,

today I implemented my first small Borges app - wanted to show off 
Borges to my employer on Monday. I tried a small stress test: just 
clicking on links a lot of times, and watching the Task Manager 
window. 

The first version (which stored a continuation for every click) 
increased the memory about a megabyte per click, and started thrashing 
wildly at something like 80 megs. No response in 5 minutes. 
Unacceptable.

The second version did not store any continuations, but increased the 
memory about 500K a click. I decided not to wait until it starts 
thrashing =) So:

1) Eric, you have a major bug somewhere. (Or is it Matz? =)

2) How can I disable old pages altogether? I can design my app around 
this. Maybe it could help. Borges has many other cool features I just 
can't let go of now.

P.S. Just tried the same test on the SushiNet example: simply hitting 
the "Browse" link repeatedly. Increases memory about 2.5M per click. 
Sad.
