Come to think of it, as simple and kludgey sounding as it is, this is an
incredibly good idea if you have an app that does a lot of sitting around waiting
for input, etc. and therefore not allocating memory and you want an easy way to
make sure it releases resources in a reasonable amount of time.  This belongs in
an FAQ somewhere.
