Freeing up memory in PowerShell using garbage collector

Just got this great tip from Lars on how he reduces memory consumption in his AD PowerShell scripts with a simple garbage collection call (basically explicitly telling .NET behind PowerShell to recycle the objects no longer in use):

Using Quest AD tools I often run in to memory consumption problems. I thought it was a question of memoryleaks, but its not, its the Garbage collection that doesn’t get collection until its to late.
So i’m using this when I use Quests AD Management Cmdlets in PowerShell, where $i is a simple counter

if (($i % 200) -eq 0)
{
[System.GC]::Collect()
}

Hope that helps!
