It's probably only releasing the memory for RbArray and not what it refers to. 
m_objects is a dynamic array, and so it's memory is elsewhere on the heap 
rather than being part of RbArray itself. So, it probably doesn't get released 
when the RbArray is deleted.

Even if it were, it wouldn't get fixed. delete is being removed from the 
language. You really shouldn't be using it.
