The PA28-161, Hunter and UFO all went up by about 10M over that time. I discarded the UFO results because I couldn't get it to stay still, it drifted slowly over changing scenery and I though this might adversely effect te results. The C172-3D decreased by 10M from the initial value.
I had AI turned off for these tests. There was an interesting discussion on IRC last night...proposing that a possibile source is in the fonts area and with Mechiors work on the fonts (which I understood, made font features that were localised, more globally available) the problem might have become more evident. No proof was offered either way on this before I went to bed. But my simplistic understanding says this might have existed for a very long time. In that a leak that was being caused in an area that wasn't being worked on, could now be processing alot more data and hence the leak becomes more noticable.
