>>>Walter, fairly sure it's caused by the code downloaded from the wiki that uses an object property to store the message byte by byte. As you'd expect, I'd have used a VFP cursor with a memo field that runs like a scalded cat even if it decides to spool to disk... but see other message for the solution I think we came up with.

Not sure what you mean. GC? FWIW, we've got HL7 interfaces that run for years without interruption, pure VFP code.
