I don't believe there is a way without restarting illustrator, I remember reading in the official notes/documents somewhere that its a known problem and the only solution is to restart illustrator. I suspect its just memory leaks in illustrator which Adobe have got around to fixing because the average user wont encounter the problem.

Also the JavaScript engine in Illustrator is persistent, so any memory leaks there will also be a problem or require a restart.

Perhaps modify your code to check the destination folder, and if the file has already been processed and saved then skip it, that way you can just re-start illustrator and get the script to pickup from where it left off.
