I'm running Emacs 23.3.1 / AUCTeX-version "2011-09-18". [I get massive
memory leaks with Emacs 24, without even running LuaLaTeX or anything like
that]. But for Emacs 23, I've only noticed the memory leak when I run
LuaLaTeX. (It seems to be worse the more times I run LuaLaTeX.)

Here is a minimal document which causes a memory leak in Emacs when
compiled with LuaLaTeX. (This one won't work in plain LaTeX because of
fontspec though.)


\documentclass[12pt]{article}

\usepackage{fontspec}
\defaultfontfeatures{Ligatures=TeX,Numbers=OldStyle}
\setmainfont{Linux Libertine O}
\setsansfont[Scale=MatchLowercase]{Linux Biolinum O}
\setmonofont[Scale=MatchLowercase]{Latin Modern Mono}

\begin{document}
Hello, world.
\end{document}
