Memory not free after glDeleteTextures call

Hi ,

i'm using MALI-400 and its OpenGLES stack. Playing with textures, i discovered that the memory used by textures is not free just after glDeleteTextures call.
It seems also the same when using eglImages.
I would expect that just after the call to glDeleteTextures or eglDestroyImageKHR the memory used by the process using openGL decrease. But it is not the case.

Is there a possibility (API) to force the OpenGLES stack to free the memory and give it back to the system ?

Thanks for your help.

BR

Seb
