Well, yeah, I know that but it still came as a nasty surprise!

In my image I still had 3870 left, which caused some startlement. After taking a look around I noticed SMSqueakMap class>cleanUp: and then some senders of that. Turns out that
`Smalltalk cleanUp: true`
gets rid of a lot of stuff in a way I’d never heard of before. Along with the flushed cached versions and ancestry code Chris mentioned I can now get rid of a lot of stuff. My image is now down to 14Mb from 40, so that’s a help.
I wonder where 10Mb of Bitmaps is being used...
