Releasing memory in IDL [message #58250]

Hi,

I am trying to run a function (clumpfind) several times with different
parameters, however, after I call it once not enough memory is
available. I checked with 'help, /memory' to find variables that I
could destroy to release memory, without luck (see below).

Is this the expected behavior of IDL? how can I release memory from
the main function?

Best,
Jaime
