The actual memory is freed after each call of spi_finish, which is cool. However the global amount of virtual memory used by the process does not decrease until the last spi_finish. I get :
ERROR: out of memory DETAIL: Failed on request of size 10.
...unless I set the virtual memory up to more than 2 gigs. Why isn't it freed ?
My config is : windows 2000, P3, 256 Mo ram.

No, spi_finish frees memory used in that particular SPI invocation. What's your evidence for thinking otherwise?
