Rocko,

the other thing to consider is that the patch in comment #68 stops all
types of GObject leaks, including those holding resources outside of
normal memory. So if for example that texture leak returns (which I
expect it may), that will consume texture memory even faster than you
see main memory being used. It's mostly an invisible resource,
contributing to the VSIZE only, but still using very real and very
limited physical/GPU memory. Hidden resource leaks like that would
explain slow-downs probably better than the visible memory growth would.
