Yes, you are right, when I close the session (or kill nxagent which is the 
same) and open a new one everything is ok ... the problem is that I don't 
want to close the session every time the memory of the client is full ... I 
just want to kill the application which "fills" the memory or better just 
flush the cache and continue to work ...
