Hmm - it's beginning to look as if this problem is long-standing. It only seems to involve 2d panels: those ac with pure 3d panels are unaffected. Some 3d panels have 2d elements - these are also affected. Linux and Windows both seem to be affected, but Melchior cannot reproduce the memory leak on his set-up. A date when you first noticed this effect would perhaps help in tracking it down.
