I found a leak in snapd-glib, which is fixed in snapd-glib 1.56. It's not clear to me how to read the heaptrack data, as that leak doesn't look significant to me there. Perhaps try again with updated focal to see if there's any significant difference?

This seems excessive. I'll try running under heaptrack to see if there's any obvious slow leaks.
