    - releasefileinfo3d
      The data read through readcae3d , and meta data read through readcae3d, gettypename3d,gettypelist3d, gettypeindex3d,getcompname3d, getcomplist3d and getcompindex3d is not necessarily auto-released from memory when the vectors they were assigned to are emptied. They can be released explicitly though as shown below.
