I am working with some very large stacks, do some processing, close the
stacks, and then start over with the next batch.

I am getting out of memory errors, when opening the second group of
stacks. When I use the memory monitor, I find that, with all windows
closed, except the memory monitor, it shows 564 MBytes used.

I am on a Dual Processor Dell, with 2.5 G of RAM, where I have allocated
1600 MBytes  and 4 threads for ImageJ.

Is there an easy way to release memory without restarting ImageJ?
