[Psi-Devel] [BUG] Memory leak in Psi

Welcome,


I'm using Psi-0.11 development snapshot made on August 18, 2007. It has 
been running for last 7 days (since August 19, 2007 20:30 CEST; I 
hibernate my operating system every night). I've noticed that free RAM 
level in my system (Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 with all the 
latest patches) so I've used SysInternals' Process Explorer to find the 
process(es) which use up RAM.

At the moment, my Psi is using
- 217824 KiB of private bytes
- 424120 KiB of virtual size
- 150744 KiB of working set
And the numbers have increased a bit since my discovery.

I'm not using spell checking (one of the libraries from aspell has been 
identified to cause memory leaks in the past).


I've compiled this Psi by myself (using Qt/OpenSource for Windows, 
version 4.2.3 and MinGW with gcc/g++-3.4.2). Previous versions did not 
use so much memory when running for a long time.


Regards,
