Dispose doesn't work yet does it?  Or even 'using( ..... )'.

I just want to check that I've not got something broken.

Attached is a standard test prog for such things, from which I get the

End

Which is far less than expected.

Sorry if knowledge of this has been made public elsewhere, I can't find it.
