Can't test now, but maybe adding a call to object.makeDisplayList() (since the
mesh modifications make it invalid) after mesh.update() and before a redraw
solves this.

Check the Registry module, it lets you keep data in Blender.  There's an example
of its use in the bpython reference docs that you can get at the docs section of
www.blender.org .  If you need to store too much data, though, it's better to
add a check in your script to delete the data when the last frame where it is
needed is reached.

Side note: Blender 2.33a should be released later this week with bug fixes.  Cvs
is frozen except for major bug-fixes now.
