Draw.text() eats up a LOT of memory.

Draw.text creates a new Text graphic every time it is called. Can be fixed pretty simply with caching:

         /**
         * Draws text.
         * @param   text        The text to render.
         * @param   x       X position.
         * @param   y       Y position.
         * @param   options     Options (see Text constructor).
         */
        public static function text(text:String, x:Number = 0, y:Number = 0, options:Object = null):void
        {
            if (!_textCache[text]) _textCache[text] = new Text(text, x, y, options);
            _textCache[text].x = x;
            _textCache[text].y = y;
            _textCache[text].render(_target, FP.zero, _camera);
        }

        // Drawing information.
        /** @private */ private static var _textCache:Object = { };

It's a bit more complicated than that unfortunately. Your code will always render the text with the size/colour/etc. it used the first time Draw.text() was called. Creating a new Text object every time is not efficient, but means that the text options will definitely be used.

Really this function is intended for quick hacky debugging, not repeated use. If you want to render text, you should probably add a Text object to the world! (I realise this is kinda a cop-out answer, sorry!)

I think this function should trace a warning or something...
