No, though the person who asked me about it uses players. I opened an 
additional small stack with a simple button script in it, clicked the 
button, and the memory went to 153 MB. It had stuck at 134.7 for a 
couple of hours until I did that. I'm pretty sure the difference is the 
size of the stack I opened, but when I "close and remove from memory" 
the size didn't decrease. Seems like it should have.

This could all be normal. I never really paid attention before.
