clear() not longer frees memory it just empties the list

Use case: The list is used as a buffer, that is re-used and in
each iteration the list is cleared.

Now that clear() does not replace the data array there is no
garbage collection and we do not have to allocated one or
several new arrays in the next iteration.
You can still free the associated memory by calling clear() + trim().
