Memory allocation

Allocating fresh blocks of memory is costly. It can slow down your application or cause performance to lag during animation or interaction as the garbage collection gets triggered.

Try to recycle objects whenever you can, rather than getting rid of one and creating a new one.

Keep in mind that vector objects can consume less memory than arrays. See Vector class versus Array class .
