Maria,
This is most likely an "atom selection leak", where your script is
creating a large number of atom selections but not deleting them as
it no longer needs them. Make sure that you delete any atom selections
that are being created as each frame is loaded, before the script moves
on to process the next frame.
Cheers,
John Stone
