Well, that's interesting.
Unfortunately, I'm not a master programmer either. I'm learning as I go while developing this game, and this is the first time I've heard about something like this. I will check the code in the places you mentioned and if I find something I'll improve it in 0.2. However, I can't guarantee anything, sorry.
Thanks for letting me know!
Edit: I found a problem with animations using too much memory. This will be fixed in the next update. Thank you once again.
