That was an oversight, thanks!  Point taken, I was using interfaced
objects incorrectly.

Yet in the last few test modifications, I explicitly free both
Reference Counted and non-Reference Counted objects, so that shouldn't
cause memory leaks.


With all these tests, we have cleared up a few issues.  One still
outstanding is why TInterfacedObject performs better that TObject
using FPC?
